True Intentions

Withdrawn Innocence

The curl of your lips

reveal your intentions

Your sanity eclipsed

your deeds, too dark to mention

Hanging by a thread

transcending the rope

Swallowed words left unsaid

unraveling all hope

An evil so severe

the consequence floating is airborne

The evidence is clear

while innocence is withdrawn

At the end of your misdeeds

as you gather your armies

You will never believe

exposure in autopsy

    oh so dark the intentions. Evil seems lurking in all these ominous words.
