Lies

by Traci Mabats

you kiss me with
a scorpion tongue of lies
and hold me in arms of deceit
but there is something I do not tell you
I know what your truth is made of
but I keep quiet
to conceal a truth of my own
I don’t love you

Sounds like a scorpion tongue poet wrote this. This hit like a truck, loved it.

i love the simplicity of your poetry...but the fact that it is filled with this strength and has beautiful flow...well done...
