The Big C, the big LIE
If this sounds weird, it's cuz I'm not thinking in English today. Bear with me.each spoken as an assassination attempt in the dark.
Hisses and whispers,
spoken with a smile.
You open your mouth
and
_____you

like you mean it.
Over and under, flowing streams of thought

through my mind.
A darkness like silk drapes across my eyes,
like the soft blackness of endless night.
Tears like falling stars burn down my cheeks and you
Lie

again.
How many times before your truth is completely drowned?
One word, a brand.
One lie, a bandage.
One truth, a cry.
Carnivorous
Anger
Never
Cures
Everyone's
Regret.
You should have told me the truth...
about your cancer.
