Denial



Denial

You can stay in denial
Spouting lies and deception
It’s all just a steaming pile
Of your sad, false projections
Deny, Deny, Deny more
Tell yourself that you are good
It’s all become one great bore
Cause, you don’t act like you should
You sit and occupy pen
Writing, displaying, your lies
But, I know the great sin
No matter how much denied
Busy yourself and distract
From the destruction, you are
From the evil, that’s a fact
I can see you, no matter how far
Your mask does not deceive me
I will not be on your sites
Starving your evil indecency
Starving the beast that bites
You can write all the sad lines
Say that it is my fault, not you
You can sit and cry and deny
But ALL OF IT AND YOU are untrue
I don’t feel anything for you
As long as you are cloaking
As long as you are untrue
I am not engaging or talking
If you want to say something
If you want to change and be
Stop your cloaking and projecting
Talk to me and you will see
Until then I am starving you
Not engaging on any site
You have not changed ; still untrue
I will not wait for your bite!
