lies,
lies,
LIES!
the WORLD is built upon lies!
      lielielielie    

BOTH
husbands                      and                      wives
lov­ers                           and                        spies
wicked                         and                         wise
to each                          the                        other
                                                                ­      
                                                          ­          tries

to hide their truth
behind their eyes,
to wrap themselves
inside their lies.

I saw your best friend yesterday,
and she reminded me
of the best friend
that you had never really been.

apparently, I have given you reason
  beyond reason to never
    call or speak to me again.
      did I break your heart for-
        ever more? leave you naked on the
          floor? all that you once trusted in me is
            gone. but
              he has somehow warmed your heart, so
                it must not have been taken from all lovers,
                  just away from me. a
                    kid, that's what I hear, and how
                      lovely she
                        must be, for you to
                          never mention her to me.
                            or maybe we were just kids ourselves? too
                              pure to be cruel, and to dumb to keep
                                quiet. and I
                                  really
                      ­              should stop
                                      trying to understand the past. to
                                        understand what always will be
                                          very vague. I hope our memories
                                            will leave you peaceful. buy your girl a
                                              xylophone and move on. I'm sure
                                                you could use the sleep.
