PARADIGM: TONGUE WITH LIES

TONGUE WITH LIES

I tried to hold back;

Tried to be better,

Be good;

Always tough,

Mama taught;

I laid down my defenses,

Told myself to be strong;

If I am good,

He'll never have to brood;

First time he lied,

Told myself, it was a prank;

Second time,

I thought I was at fault;

He lied again,

I broke and smiled at the sun;

Strength in my resolve,

I pull his tongue out,

His screams filled my gut;

Satisfied, and filled with relief,

With a fond smile;

I remember he was my first,

I look down at my lover as his cries reach the stars;

He is my fourth,

Never will they lie again;

And cause anyone pain,

Now they know now it was in vain;

In death and misery,

I wonder who will be my fifth.
