listen in
i will tell you a lie
it will evoke an emotion
that hinders attention
you’ll have lost
only time and patience
but filled your curiosity
to cruel levels
the truth of it
is unbelievable at first
not that you’ll see
blinded by greed
know that i strike
with endless tenacity
only to illicit
your unknown response
you and i
are one and the same
free of thought
but not of pain
your blood runs blue
under a red sun
you cut off ties
that suffocate
i gasp for air
under pressure
my eyes misled you
to rapture your soul
there is no truth
in disowning the past
you choose to believe
that the future heals
you are molded
by your own lies
why have you decided
to interest yourself in mine
