A Bed Of Lies
me,
i am not the person described
the wanted posted
to which i am tied
me,
i cannot play games and pretend
no,
i am not the person you hoped for
i do not answer problems
or give first aid
for the damage inside
me,
i am not the person described
it is a self fulfilling prophecy
as my truth hides
sleeping well at night
must be hard on a bed of lies
James Garratt – Sunday 12th February 2006
