Deceit

Dedicated to....well you should know who you are.

I can see you watching me from afar

I know you don't think I know who you are

You think your mask hides the face of deceit

You think your cloak hides the knife beneath

You pretend not to hear my cry of pain

As you stab me in the back again

 

The night will not brighten while you're here

Morning will not come,as your prescence brings fear

Your lies grow stale and I can plainly see

My trust belongs with no one...no one but me

Your gloved hands still show fingerprints in the dust

While you're hunting with an arsenal of lies for my trust

 

How long will you crawl on the floor searching

For the dirt and grime that only causes hurting?

Your black eyes portray selfishness and greed

Always telling what wants to be heard and you feed

On the false statements you maliciously devour

You stash away countless vilifications for your helpless hours

 

You use,steal,and spread whatever I say

People fall and are crushed into the ground and you simply walk away

With your mask,cloak,and gloves you move on

To destroy yet another who used to be strong

Friends dissapear and you lie in a cold,lonely world

Someday you will weep for the love and trsut you so brutally killed

 

Today you hide in the darkness and shadows

You run away from the truth and the hope that follows

You refuse to open your jaded eyes tot he life that could be

Instead you hold tight to your knife and look for a heart trusting innocently

One day you will awake and your blade will be gone

People will see you and they will run

You will find yourself so very....alone.

Interesting poem describing (in my opinion) the world's best backstabber and manipulator… (Great props) unfortunately this person is based off someone from real life... sorry you had to deal with him or her. But in the end, karma’s there to deal out the cards… and give them what they deserve.

Huge props. I could feel and nearly see it.
