Sometimes when fantasy is so much better than reality, we tend to close our eyes and refuse to see what's right. When the feeling is so overwhelming, we continue to dream for what is impossible. And sometimes when we love too much, we choose to believe even if we know they're lies. To those who were once a fool and are still being a fool, this one's for you...

Tell Me a Lie

I leave a trail of rose petals for you to follow, 

But you choose her cliff of thorns and fall. 

If your love I am allowed to borrow, 

Will you let me in and break the wall? 

Your hands are intertwined; 

My soul is breaking. 

Your thoughts are in rhyme; 

Mine is pretending. 

If you could turn her darkness into light, 

Why can't you bring me day and banish the night? 

If you could turn her winter into spring, 

Why turn my summer to constant yearning? 

Whisper that you cherish me, 

And look at me in the eyes. 

Please hold me like you need me, 

And tell me a lie.
