He lied
through his stinking teeth
his lips
dripped poisoned honey
and I
believed every word placed on his tongue
even when
I could taste the lies
and the
back of my mind screamed at my useless eyes
I was hell
bent on believing in the wrong religion
some tried
to save me
some sang
the truth
but the
music stopped too soon
and I was
left alone again and again
separated
from the world by his wall
and for
what?
to hop
into his arms
too broken
to question his plastic love
what
finally saved me was a soul I cherished more than mine
a part of
me I raised
my blood,
my love
who showed
me a better way
her
innocent smiles and fragile tears finally blew his façade away
when I saw
the monster underneath
I ran.
For the ones who saw the truth and for the ones who couldn't
