Deception is sitting across the table from us,
Defying it's common lusts,
Oh not lying for what it's worth,
But scheming in it's mind,
Deception in a single form,
Unmoving and unchanging,
No second chances,
'Cause that would give a chance one too many,
Deception is sitting across the table from us,
It's wicked ways charming,
We're being tricked too late to say,
The thrawl has already been entered,
But deception is a tricky thing,
A blanket over fire,
If there is but one hole there,
The fire rages on,
Scheming deception too late to see,
It's own fatal mistake,
Been caught out,
And once again,
Thrust into isolation,
Deception will come back one day,
Smarter in a way,
And it will work it's spell again,
Just as easily as today,
But if one thing has been learned,
It's not to trust at first,
So guard youself against it,
Because it's coming back for us,
Author notes
It's my own personal views on liars. Hope you all like it!
