I lie in my poems,
Where I speak to you
and cry—
The only truth
that matters:
I

..lie in my poems,
Where conversations never fill
the silence,
yet time stands
Still.

I lie in my poems,
Where we fit like a glove,
Pretending you know
What I’d do for your
Love.

I lie in my poems,
Where these words
Read as a clue,
Addressing my love to
You.
