Lip lock promises

Subtle persuasion,

Twist of fate

Or twist of Cain?

Eagle eyed stare

Glimpse of denial,

Quicksand to heaven

In memories betrayal.

Juxtapose noises

Makes thinking surreal,

Mix and matching emotions

Creates plastic heart attack.

Steal plated hand shake

Rusts any promises,

Recycling fortunes

Isn’t worth the price.

To deal with the devil

Is to deal with yourself,

The truth of tomorrow

Starts with lies of the past.

Time to wake up

Without an alarm,

Even in an eclipse

The sun never stops.
