[From the archives] Pretender

Written Dec 9, 2010


You're a pretender, so am I


The stars in the sky, they know


What goes on, beneath and beyond,


My caged heart and your black one.





Whispered secrets, thin veils


Of truth over lies.


You're not real, and neither am I.


The stars, they know the oldest truth,


When lies become truth, and the truth is a lie,


You can't go  back.





Forward, sideways, frontways, backways,


Down down down, we fall.


A blizzard of cold, of secrets and night,


A blanket of warm, out of sight.
