Liar
When shadows dwell within her mind and space,
She sought wisdom from one who could help her;
But it was a guise, a false front - darkness.
He - lurking, waiting for a time to pounce,
Leaving her desperate, hollow, and sad,
Realizing there was no one to trust.
Take the blade, lovely one, and protect her
From the shadows and the fake man who says
He is faithful to God; He tells the lies.
What does that do to your heart, my dear one?
Cut him down, his ignorant, darkened heart
And sit for a while; His demise, indeed,
Is inevitable; He'll bleed and fall.
