"In Hearts that Choose to Trust and Believe"

Dishonesty with stealthy feats,

A mask adorned, a whispered lie,

Conceals the heart, where virtues die.

Words spun like silk, with cunning grace,

Deceive the eyes, conceal the face.

A web of deceit, a tangled thread,

Where honor falters, trust misled.

Yet beneath the guise, a troubled soul,

Lost in illusions, losing control.

For falsehood's path is fraught with fear,

Where echoes of guilt draw near.

In twilight's grasp, where shadows play,

The dishonest heart will rue the day.

For truth, though hidden, cannot fade,

In honesty's light, debts are paid.

So let deceit find no reprieve,

In hearts that choose to trust and believe.
