Deceitful Words


Deceitful Words, Disguised, In the warmth and comfort of pleasing eyes. A poison truth, Unclean, Waiting to ravish all things pristine. A promise gone, Foul play, What filth comprises the masquerade? Decaying trust, Sin, lie, Beneath wicked smiles, I watch love die. A broken mind, Dead heart, All your Truth, falsely called, dead since the start. Deceitful Words, Unmasked, A future murdered by malicious past.
