Shadows of Deception

Whispers intertwine like fumes,

Truth misshapen in shadows,

Eyes sparkle with a flawed light.

💨💨💨💨💨

A web of deceit,

Threads turn with a silver tongue,

Reality curves.

🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️

The king of lies,

Each story a fragile move,

Trust broken like glass.

👑👑👑👑👑

Promises like murk,

Disappearing with dawn’s first blush,

Hope holds onto the wind.

🌬️🌬️🌬️🌬️🌬️

Echoes of history,

Each fib a haunting apparition,

Memories buried.

👻👻👻👻👻

In the mirror's ogle,

Reflections rotate and stagger,

Who looks back at me?

🪞🪞🪞🪞🪞

A heart hidden,

Behind walls of fictional tales,

Longing for the truth.

🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲

Murmurs of the spirit,

Starving for a single word,

Honesty's embrace.

🌬️🌬️🌬️🌬️🌬️

Yet the web tightens,

Caught in the threads of my fibs,

A road I can't abandon.

🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️

Beneath the outside,

A delicate heart beats softly,

Longing to be free.

⛓️‍💥⛓️‍💥⛓️‍💥⛓️‍💥⛓️‍💥

So here I stay,

A painter of my own destiny,

Lost in my own story.

📚📚📚📚📚

In quietude I dream,

Of a world where truth conquers,

And lies erased.
