Literature Text

Why do I trust your eyes,
So filled with passion and rage,
As you live a life of lies?

Why can you not hear my cries,
As I weep within my cage,
Why do I trust your eyes?

The night is trapped within the skies,
You fancy yourself the wisest sage,
As you live a life of lies.

Can you not hear my sublte sighs?
Are you too busy on your stage?
Why do I trust your eyes?

So long I've wished for our good-byes,
such distance, between us you could never guage,
As you live a life of lies

And now as my last hope dies,
I beg you read beyond the page,
Why do I trust your eyes,
As you live a life of lies?
....
