Spin Me a Lie


Spin me a lie hang it from the window illuminate it with the faint hope shining through. Pretend you know the end of this story. Lie to me and tell me it's happy. Stand below me as I fall and I'll tell myself you'll catch me. Spin me a beautiful silken lie a tapestry of empty promises and half truths. Hang it where I can see it Maybe it'll cushion this fall.
