Deception
Thin veils hiding lies
You see the truth
In the corner of her eyes
Her gaze is unsteady
As she dances in circles
Around you
And the truth
You hear the truth
In the breaking of her voice
As she tries to hide
The quiet gossip whispering in your ear
Tangling webs to trap you both
You feel the truth
In the shivers of her skin
Each time you touch her
Pulling away
You smell the truth
The scent of cold sweat
And unknown cologne
You taste the truth
Strange taste lingering on her tongue
But you don’t know the truth
Because love isn’t just blind
It nulls the senses
In an effort of self-preservation
Denying reality
Denying truth
Until you become the lie

I am impressed with this writing.
When it started it felt kind of like
a mystery novel. What really intrigues
me is that you have , in the last six lines ,
shown a keen grasp of a psychological
process. In my old psychology books I
believe this process of self- preservation
is known as a defense mechanism.
Excellent writing. Truly , Doug |
