Lies

A short poem about a big problem

Lies are the poetry of deception

I never wanted to hurt you

Yet i did...

Lies the cancer within us all

They start out small

then they grow to devour our soul

Lies become the truth we believe.

I never set out to deceive 

Yet i did...

Is there no cure for this disease

They say "The truth will set you free"

Is that the answer

Is that the key...

To: The love of my life whom I hurt with my lies
