Promises are void if given under false pretense <br />It is like making a bad joke at your own expense <br />You delivered words that came smooth and easy <br />While in reality they were worthless and sleazy <br /> <br />Your voice remained steady but delivered lies <br />I do not know what you gained with your disguise <br />Was it just your own ego that you were feeding <br />Or was it control you are after when misleading <br /> <br />You showered me with plans and none were true <br />I'm glad I did not fall and put you under review <br />Still I wish you the best and will not hold a grudge <br />Because you will get what you deserve I judge <br /> <br />It seems pathetic that you needed false schemes <br />To make you feel more of a man in your dreams <br />There was no damage done and I let you off fast <br />After all it is your loss and the test you did not pass <br /> <br />(dedicated to Duncan Tanner Jr.)<br /><br />Kristina Louisa Carr<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lies-218/
