Seduced by Lies

After writing words;

You kissed the flesh on the shoulder

With the same lips which seduced to a lie.

It never occurred that at those moments

(With arms wrapped around the warm casement of vein and blood)

That this…would have any effect

In causing rain to fall

From the same blue eyes you captivated with your own;

(Minds are more nimble and sympathetic than this)

And yet you see not the torturous moments you create.

With recklessness showing affection to the blind

…All for self-gain.

In the land of the blind, you have the only eye

And so ruthlessly and hard heartedly

You rule these naïve and well natured souls

To cliffs jaded with sharp and treacherous rocks

Awaiting to tear their flesh and souls.

And then their broken souls are consumed with the sharp tongue

You so avidly use to stretch these truths,

Leaving them to their own devices of imagination.

 

Only time will tell when you may fall to your own devices

Struck down by the half truths,

Once uttered from your poisonous lips;

Lips which kissed the flesh on the shoulder of the betrayed.
