Velvet Lies.

…….

By Marvelous MichaelPublished 11 months ago 1 min read

You talk so sweet, like honey and wine,

Every word a thread you wind.

Pulled me close, then let me go,

Left me chasing what I’ll never know.

*

Oh, velvet lies, soft and cruel,

Wrapped me up, made me a fool.

My name lingers on your tongue,

bitter on our lips now that the game is unraveled and done.
