#deceitful
In the kaleidoscope of affection, I painted you with hues of adoration, blind to your monochrome reality. Eyes fixed on the canvas of our shared moments, I brushed away the shadows you cast on the edges. Your smiles, a palette of warmth, a sunlit mirage, Masked the colder currents beneath the surface. I sculpted your silhouette from fragments of devotion, Blind to the chisel that carved deceit into your contours. Each word you spoke, a lyrical serenade, Harmonizing with the symphony of my own yearning. Yet, within the notes, the discord of deception echoed, A melody played on strings attuned to your agenda. In the gallery of my heart, your portrait hung, A masterpiece crafted by hands that concealed ulterior motives. I traced the lines of your whispered promises, Unaware they were sketches of transient commitment. The truth, veiled in the smoke and mirrors of affection, Cloaked by the tender illusions of shared vulnerability. I basked in the radiance of your borrowed light, Unmindful that shadows were the offspring of your truths. Blinded by love's unforgiving lens, I sculpted a narrative, Ignoring the fractures in the marble of our connection. In the echo chamber of your affirmations, The resonance of deception, a dissonant undertone. "The Truth in Your Lies," an exhibition of realization, Where the canvas of affection reveals concealed motives. I dismantle the gallery, unframe the illusions, Confronting the naked truth beneath the painted veneer.

The Truth In Your Lies
Time passes a thought To another, in a climbing sense of renderings... We see the call to unify, in a shy voice ought? Today was a marveling hour, we could marvel's ends... Bite me...with a resolve? They said the sour news is a welcome sunshine With pets and history to come at all... Of a younger moment to be quiet, for a composure of time... Hours as we know, a fixation on else Can be, the truth be found in a place of sin Was this imagined tongue, the saying of wealth Yet to be, the stir of justice of what is a craved wince... Of passion over a legend to become, our friends The tale we notice, and simplify by devoid and avoid Is but a loose remark of such to roll and imbue, the like we end As if the world knows any better: the fight of certainty's choice...?! Sly or slime? Tows of redoubt, between lovers or a heroism of dry finality's Sunny as we should note, is about the hour I am trying We see the traitor of commonness and pence, our humor is... A rushing eye, to know a catastrophe That is being a silent opportunity, to approach though And worth the implied key, we find in the future feat Of lying to the misses, when a game is for those we hosted, should first owe...?

Aching And Faking, A Joke About Handshakes
Proud we stand, loftily in our ivory towers Proud we stand, bawling our boasts and feats Proud we stand, on the cold concrete we built In shame, I hung my head, fathoming our “powers” In grief, my quill broke his heart descrying our plight. Humanity bleeds as his ink flows in protean woe Love has lost its world, We estranged her away And the world lost its Love, We chased disarray All the colours in this world have run eerily cold Our eyes fixated on a global monochrome gold To bundles of printed paper, our soul… we sold. Humanity bleeds as his ink flows in protean woe Our vermilion blood has thinned, thinner than wine Onto our gashes, we had to dowse the thickest brine Blinded by rage, we parried the balsam to our souls Yet in an unhesitant grace, traces remain in our bowls Yet... Our calamitous claws yearn to rinse it off us Humanity bleeds as his ink flows in protean woe For an endless pursuit, in an unquenchable thirst, We ****** our heels onto them who cleansed them The hands which held us taut. we mangled them. All for an empty crusade seeking the same black We went rabid, scouring for an immortal fountain The answer was a drop of Love, now unobtainium.   Yet I anticipate in the warmth of a spring someday A few dewdrops and a little fountain emerging… Fountain so bountiful in Love, her arrival in glory. That day, my quill shall be healed and his ink resting

The Forsaken Cinders of Love
I took you at a glance that day And met you with a kindly nod Although you a strictly tried to hide your evil, I unraveled your facade You think you can deceive us "Simple folk" with your bodacious *** But babe, I know of your decrepid soul I promise this on God You strut yourself around this world Up on your pedestal You harbor your self righteousness And think you're "oh so cool" You think the world should worship you And see you as if you're a dazzling jewel But I hate to burst your bubble gal Cause you're one conceded fool! Don't try and dance around the truth And lie your way to goddess status Cause after all is said and done You're definitely no Trish Stratus Your well thought out ruse just Stands no chance when your heart is filled with malice Girl, you're a mortal just like us - You weren't delivered in a palace So come back down to planet earth And relieve us of this madness!

I See Through You
Honey oozing out of your mouth as you speak Glazing my ear with a seductive coat of kindness Brilliantly beguiling my cartilage into a counterfeit tenderness Diffusing its blissfully pungent aroma into my nose Pulling my face towards you Gracefully tilting my chin up Eloquently dripping down your lips onto mine Allowing me to taste your divine ooze

Eloquent
*I think I'm the worst kind of guy... Deceitful, But I don't mean to be. It's just because I flicker from using my brain to using my heart. I don't mean to mislead a girl, I don't mean to break hearts, I'm just searching for my one true love, But it's harder than I imagined : To go on this journey without leaving hearts broken. Because I'm deceitful, First following my heart, Thinking you're the one, Then following my brain, Realising that we need to end things, Because my conscience tells me I'm doing the wrong thing by holding onto you, Even though you fill me up with so much joy and love... It keeps whispering, "You don't deserve her."*

Worst kind of guy
Her eyes reflected the tragedy she endured She struggled daily to escape this hell hole Her pain, was evident through the tears that rolled down her cheeks Her cries were capable of making the strongest person weep. She often wondered why... Why was she so unfortunate to deserve such a fate? Why she was not capable to give up on her life? She burned in agony She screamed in pain She yelped for help, But no one came to her aid. She was fed up but was still clinging onto some hope. She tried to fight.... Oh how hard she tried to hold onto her life. But he took everything away.. He stripped her from her innocence, caged her freedom and destroyed her pride. And one unfateful day.. He even took her life. One day, in broad daylight He entered the house, staggering towards her with a knife. He stabbed her, not once but twice. Cursing her that she was reason people looked at him with spite. He forced her into such a dark place where it's impossible to survive. Her once porcelain skin turned scarlet. Her struggle to survive, ceased to exist. She was put out of her misery. She was put out of her pain. If only the people had believed her cries. If only they had offered to help her fight. Maybe.. just maybe She would still be alive.

Her Plight
Like vanilla spice And as sweet as chocolate Her lips were nice But the rest was poison She'll be plotting your demise As you're hypnotized

The art of deception
You may have torn me apart Undressed me For all your pleasure Sang me a lullaby To get your way You are a devil in disguise. Spewing lies as a natural language The language of deceitful, cunning lies The hell you put inside of me I want out But you don’t have the key do you I’m trapped within myself So you’re not the devil are you? But the devils help. The only devil lives with me, Everyday.  And you don’t even know.

The Devil Inside
There are bound to be Uptight Ultra right Conservatives who want to fight Want to say wrong is right And right is wrong Cause shifting priorities In an easily influenced society Gives them more power To glower while they shower Themselves with the wealth We earned with our sweat So they steal what we should get And call it patriotic

The Shifty
In the eyes of mortals, They are monsters. Of vibrating destruction. In the eyes of a Rider, They are worshipped and strong. They seek companionship, A guardian for life. These creatures fly high, Over the mountainous peaks, Through the Evergloom valleys. Down the rising sea. They pride their right as Dov. Rightful to their kin. They are... The Dragons. They are not monsters. Who create destruction. They are not viscious, When it comes to Royals. These Dragons are so misunderstood. Cant they live among us, For the good? Their sleek scales, Massive wings, Ivory claws and spikes. Two lungs create, Fire and Ice. These dragons, They are breath-taking. Almost Immortal, They will outlive a human being. Don't take them as Deceitful. They wish not to destroy. They are guardians of this world. Our Dragons, Are definitely. A riders Bestfriend.

The Dragons
You Reap What You Sow A sentiment that never quite stuck. I did what I would- Consequences were a punishment for villains more obvious than the sweet girl I played. But the real world is not so biased, peeling away the masks I wore You Lay in the Bed You Make But my pillow is filled with thorns, and my blanket is thread-bare. The mattress is layered with spiders' webs and the chill never abates. I long for the One to warm my soul... But it's been years since another has lain so close For I sow seeds of deceit and when they bloom the fruit is bittersweet and the stems cannot bear weight.

The Bittersweet Harvest
The definition of Love had a greater meaning to start. It only now has the meaning of until boredom do us part. Used to describe hobbies, clothes, games, and more. Love is beaten, bruised, black and has been left trampled on the floor Some love, sincere Some other is not The seed can grow with but one little lustful thought. That seed of deception Grows to fields of remorse. A so-called Lovers’ quarrel ends in bittersweet divorce. Therefore, we leave love, drowned in society’s deceit. With a faint memory of What love had used to be But true love being rare blossoms like a unique flower. With God's aid you’ll find it there shining with its bright petals Through hard work and understanding And deceitful love fore’er forgotten Trust and fervor everlasting True love gives color to its gray garland
