come closer here and
whisper those lies
tell me how you would
do absolutely anything
convince me to see
past the convenience
help belief give way
to suspension while
you explain i am
the only one

i need to feel your
gentle breeze in my head
as we lay here naked
and entirely unafraid
the sugarspoon makes
sunrise come easier
in the dead hours when
you confess i am
the only one

cleverly
you lie to me
i feel so
pleasantly

because i realize
truth is perversity
it doesnt matter
that you wont exist
in another week
captivate me again
with your soft touch
bedtime stories where
you pretend i am
the only one

adeptly
you lie to me
i fall so
blithely
