the girl was a pearl with a heart of stone
one with a mind and emotions full blown
who didn't know how to savour the truth
until all the problems hit the roof

we are all made up of lies
draped over us like a costume; our disguise
increasing more and more while you watch as time flies
only after everyone dies
*will you be able to see into their true eyes

lost sanity as though your head was severed
especially after you oh so endeavored
to keep it all to yourself; in your mind
maybe now, my dear, you will find
that secrets
are not welcome here

and whenever their backs were turned
the girl jumped and landed with a smack
only then was it that they yearned
for her to come back

bask in the glory of all of the lies
watch as everyone else mystifies
at the telling of such faux tales
the idiocy will soon tip the scales

tip
your head back and
catch
all the rain on your tongue
let
it wash away the pain of all
bad**
you have done
