Pretty Little Lies (POEM)





Pretty Little Lies

Speak to me those pretty little lies,
Tell me what I want to hear when you look into my eyes,
I don't care that the words just aren't true,
I just want to feel like I am one with you.


You all lie and you all try to change me,
A lil here and there you completely rearrange me,
Just a nip just a tuck,
Then I'll be good enough to fuck.


I don't care anymore what you have to say,
It doesn't matter I've come to play,
Try as you might you'll never get to see,
The secret I keep deep inside of me.


You'll see what I show you, you'll see what I want,
You'll get what I give you and love what I flaunt,
But you'll never know me, you'll never get in,
You'll never control me or hurt me again.


Protection is the name of the game,
Never again burned by passion's flame,
Things will get steamy but I won't feel any pain,
The flames will lick all around with nothing to gain.


I'm all burnt out nothing but charred emotion,
So I can no longer feel hate or devotion,
My feelings are something I will no longer share,
I won't toss my treasures out into the air.


You can deal with anything if you know the score,
And my heart will never play the game anymore,
Nothing but playacting and manipulation driven by lust,
It doesn't matter the feeling it will always turn to dust.


So dance like a pagan, howl at the moon,
Indulge wanton hedonist, play your own tune,
Fuck me and use me like there's nothing you want more,
Just tell me those lies before you walk out the door.

  1. I wrote this when I was frustrated and feeling pulled and manipulated in all directions. I felt angry and I didn't know what end was up. It's pretty blunt and a bit crude but at that moment it was how I felt.
