Deception
Angela Crabtree 1982 (maine)
Deception
Falling through this dangerous web of deception
You don't see what you are doing to me
The emotions slipping through the cracks
Hanging onto the thread barely breathing
Why is it so hard to see what is going on around you
Time is standing still
Confusion building its demise
Why can't you see what you are doing t me?
Feelings I have felt so many times before
Hurt burning through open doors
Tears streaming, leaving dew drops on the web
What is going on?
The lies and deception continue
