Honesty

You offered me your love

In every way but true

Tales after tails

Which one belonged to you?

I asked you for the truth

You wrapped it in bubble gum so thick

And left it on the night stand

No, it never did stick

You spoke of rainbows

And worlds where shadows don’t exist

You tried to place yourself there

But your voice never left the mist

I told you to keep your rich words

And images that I could not hold

I asked you for honesty

Suddenly you explode

Signs were meant

 to show me the way

but I got lost in the maze

your stories got longer each day

You’re someone else’s problem now

You’re half a man, still incomplete

Have you ever caught a glimpse of your reflection?

While you splash in the waters of deceit

I guess winters must be warm

With thick layers of quilted lies

Of all the snowmen in the world

You were certainly no prize

Ah, but I guess the shame

it is all on me

You just keep stepping in bullshit

I’ll be dancing with reality
