Just Lie To Me Poem by Juan Olivarez

Just lie to me, tell me it's not true,
And I'll believe you I always do.
Look in my eyes and plead your case,
With that innocent look upon your face.

Swear up and down, It's just not so,
Waving your arms, pacing to and fro.
Just act offended, grow red in the face,
All the while piercing me, with that icy gaze.

And you know I'll believe, I always do,
But you'll think in your mind, I have no clue.
And life will go on as it always will,
As you wound my heart, and move in for the kill.
