Smiling sweetly

Your lie fools all the fools

I see you for the truth

You are drowning

Drowning in your self-loathing laughter.

Drowning in your sweet smelling perfume

That permeates through all your lying

These gifts of joy, they can’t hide the pain

That forces you to give

And joke

And smile sweetly

As your heart races

And your lungs gasp

As your lies undulate

And your blue eyes close

Forever.
