listen with your ears
look with your eyes
but at the end of the day
it's feeling what you may
that has no disguise

deceit and lies lay together
in the devils bed
how do you vent
when the truth is bent
from words that one said

hollow are the thoughts
when time does reveal
the clarity of my vision
hidden by your decision
and the honesty that you steal

no wager will i place
nor even entertain
for to do so
would only grow
the roots of my pain

i see you as you are
crystal clear i might add
i need not convince
nor convey since
any thoughts that are bad

like a fruit going rotten
upon a tree glad
never to ripen wholey
or enjoyed solely
will finally drop.......sad.
