compulsive liarA Poem by moongirlprompt #2: your favorite fictional character's perspectiveCOMPULSIVE LIAR One too many and a thousand isn’t enough Drowning along the sea of lies I’ve made, The frightened boy in the mirror seems to fade Malevolent words, nothing but a charade I fooled them with my lies, but what did it cost? Today as I lay underneath the hydraulic press, Ready to play one final game of chess, The solid mask I wear cracks, it’s finally time At last, I bid adieu to this miserable life of mine At the very least, I wasn’t boring, right? - s.t © 2020 moongirlAuthor's Note
