Another lost moment

A lullaby, heard on the distant shores

Able to reach even my core.

Behind the masks and the plays

A song even I can't betray.

Lines about a pretender;

Lies about a lover,

Secrets not to be told

Of feelings way too old.



Another smile; again kowtowing

For another tricked person.

Another laugh; again serving

To deceive daughter and son.

Dropping a disguise to present a new one

Whispering a confession to create a new crime.

Make the world forget when all this began

So they all forgive what I am.



A lullaby, heard far away

Able to slow down the decay
Behind the lies and the applauses

A song even I can't give pause.

Rhymes about a lover;

Poems about a betrayer,

Truths to be treasured more

About a concealed paramour.



Another sigh; again jumping

Off a different bridge's remains.

Another laugh; again cutting

Those pointless veins.

Throwing a costume to match yours

Screaming a thought to catch your attention.

Make you forget I'm but a cur,

To avoid this painful rejection.
