Read Between The Lies

A mystery you are..

The story you told me seemed so real,

The way everything fell into place 

You were a story worth reading

But now its not even worth looking at,

I had to research because you never told me

Who you really were,

I read between the lies

To see if you spoke the truth

I read and reread the story

Making sure I processed it correctly

Only to figure out it was lies you tried to 

Cover up with more lies,

So your story appeared  to be nonfiction

But really was fiction

I read between the lies

To save myself from heartbreak

[John Jackson (El Juero)]

This one really moved me. No lie. A pure and true telling.
I like to layout and the highlighted words of the poem.

Absolutely brilliant writing.

[K.C. Zbryk]

Very well penned, and a great twist on the phrase. Yor writing always seems to catch me by suprise.

So many times I've heard those lines, for many I told for you to hold, knowing deep inside that we both played this game, only you knew the rules better, and so unlike you I lay here broken hearted..... Well written. :0)

clever manipulation of a common phrase and I am sure that some may have missed it!! I think that your work has grown in maturity and skill since you have started posting. Keep it up!
