poetic-distortions

you were 
most deceptive 
and perhaps i am at fault
when i mistook 
your love for sugar
and ended up with salt

-mouse

salt and sugar

against my
 better judgment
against all 
common sense
i blindly loved you anyway
and at my heart's 
expense

"at my heart's expense"

in misery 
she lived her life
they judged her as a freak 
for she'd no voice to call her own
no voice to sing or speak 
but they were wrong to judge her so
to not even give the chance 
for even though she was a mute 
oh, boy, could that girl 
dance
