Deceitful people tend to believe they know you

what you'd do

what's best

and what's in your interest

playing manipulative games

accusing and denying

then not even making a sound excuse

they'll drive you mental


Deceitful people

you could pitifully be related to

someone you can't escape

where nothing and ever good enough

as he repeats—

"it's not that fucking hard"


Deceitful people

you need to stand up to

say your truth and be brutally honest

for the emotional abuse they've inflicted

is nothing to what's coming for them

from your sweet lips

in those dark eyes

and courage forcing

to reclaiming what was yours to begin with.
