Lies

Don't want to know

Cowardice

And hairline fractures

Lost,

In the eye of a Storm

Alone,

Turn and capture these moments

Pretending

as the walls fade around us

Hope

illusion of changing what is

Trust

what holds these parts whole

Lies

When there was no blameless escape

and then,

Me

believe causeless harm

You

Knotting this inside out

Lies

don't want to know

Lies

Can't change.
