Lies in ....Guise
The haughty face of pride
veiled with dithering trust
when a slender pious hymen
betrayed the carnal lust
False dreams of toil
regaled leisurely in sloth
and gluttonous greed indeed
devoured the last of troth
With a damp shroud on virtues
and naïve wisdom of youth
I never felt more lonely
and so far away from truth
veiled with dithering trust
when a slender pious hymen
betrayed the carnal lust
False dreams of toil
regaled leisurely in sloth
and gluttonous greed indeed
devoured the last of troth
With a damp shroud on virtues
and naïve wisdom of youth
I never felt more lonely
and so far away from truth
