Lying smile
joy reeking from your
lips, you look
younger, fresher.
Does she do that?

A beat in my heart seeks
madness
adventure behind
blind eyes, detached.

Ideas of truth
twisted to
suit yourself.

You're not alone feeling
safe, when you deceive.
Desires satisfy,
demons and me.

As long as you feel
I remain.
