When the heart lies,
Tears emerged and stood in the eyes.
Emotions built in the heart
Falling in love seems dangerous
Smiles disappeared and odd cry dwells.
The blood runs dry in the veins,
And truth a hundred miles away from the heart.
Love taste sour as hatred emerged,
Bitterness of the heart grows more wings, very dangerous and visible.
Tossing and tossing things around in the heart.
Body cells shattered away in horror
When the lies
A blemish is left within the heart
Howling to be healed with a prince kiss.
Unknown scars of yesterday
Remained visible on the sword
Kept in the scabbard.
Scab drawn within, intensively,
And memories of good days hung high upon mountain
Exchange of wind blows set in.
When the heart lies, the heart becomes shrank and softer.
As trust escape through the door and anger hasten in.
Separated world and twisted fate
Twisted fate such as twist
Of each married man as one heart becomes two.
Loneliness entered as fondness hasten away
Darkness of the night becomes visible to the eyes
Back to back on the bed,
Dinning before the other if the appetites were there
When the heart lies, the iron ring would be thrust aside and trampled upon.
World apart,
Two together becomes apart.
Marriage is not a bed of roses neither relationship a sweet songs.
Mother warned you to be faithful
Remembering the oats on the altar
White gown wore with veil now turns black and red.
Lying dismantled the holy matrimony.
Oh! The serpent at it again,
The old deceiver of the world
Here lie our first parents whom you deceived
Of which use is your power when you make us lie?
When the heart lies,
It brings Bruises on the face
Infidelity brought the pains
Thousand warning unheard
Waite for the miserable life in future
When you have too many mouth to feed.
Take care humble heart, take care emotions
Take care father heart, least you perish in misery.
(JOHN CHIZOBA VINCENT)
