For the gentle breeze stirred from a fluttering of snow laced eyelashes,
for the dance of stray strands of pale hair escaping into the crips air,
for the disdainful curve of dainty lips,
for that cold, penetrating, closed off stare,
I cry for Virgo.
For the isolated feelings of hopelessness,
for the cold skin and stilled heart,
for the demure system of thinking analytical to the end,
for that broken down, soul, torn apart,
I cry for Her.
For the ruined emotions of a stranger,
for the bleeding past of desolation,
for the labrythine lies,
for that shattered streetlight of absolute resolution,
I cry for Me.
for the dance of stray strands of pale hair escaping into the crips air,
for the disdainful curve of dainty lips,
for that cold, penetrating, closed off stare,
I cry for Virgo.
For the isolated feelings of hopelessness,
for the cold skin and stilled heart,
for the demure system of thinking analytical to the end,
for that broken down, soul, torn apart,
I cry for Her.
For the ruined emotions of a stranger,
for the bleeding past of desolation,
for the labrythine lies,
for that shattered streetlight of absolute resolution,
I cry for Me.

I don't really understand what you mean by this poem being a lie. The last stanza is more from the heart than anything else...so I really don't know what you mean at all. Sorry. Thanks for the comment sis.
