A weaver of tales, a master of deceit,

His words, like cobwebs, fragile and fleet.

He paints a picture, vibrant and bright,

But in the shadows, hides from the light.

With promises broken, and trust betrayed,

He leaves a trail of hearts, heavy and frayed.

A hollow shell, a charade of grace,

His lies, a mask upon his face.

Yet, in the depths of his soul, a flicker of pain,

A longing for truth, a chance to regain.

But the web he's spun, too tightly wound,

A prisoner of lies, forever bound.
