When Is a Lie?
What is a lie, a mask, a disguise
A different direction in the blink of an eye
A welcome escape from the darkness that hangs,
Like a cloud in the mind, a wolves sharpened fangs
A moment forever etched in the air
A dove with wings clipped, free to explore
A lovers last words lost in the wind
A perfect guitar with one broken string
A thinly veiled blanket in front of a bull
A pathetic example of fool playing fool
A weakness of structure, A new source of strength
A pulling together, while held at arms length
A desperate utterance,
A moment of despair
An acceptance
A pleading
A hope of repair
What is a lie,
Love or abuse
Can a lie go on lying
Without becoming the truth
