xlvii. poetry

you're the same as the others
wooing me with your words so i do whatever you say
you speak the same filthy lies through your teeth
they've just been worded differently
and like a fool
i fall for them every time without fail
can't you see
you're hurting me
can't you see
you're breaking me, tearing me apart
and the sad, ugly truth is
i let you.

*~*~*~*

you fake ignorance
to continue living in bliss

you see my pain
but pretend you cannot see

you hear my cries
yet say you cannot hear

you come up with any and every excuse
just so you can't see me

you lie
to maintain bliss
