Deceptions Poem by Spanner Thegob

Deceptions

The heart sighs as silence falls with a deafening calm,
shadowy figures dance macabrely where paths meet to diverge,
Tears cascade from Eyes that keep the secrets of untold stories,
Forked smiles like lightening flash and fade.
The Stillness drowns and kills the spirit.

Clouded memory bound to a Tethered past
Burn and slash to open the old hurt,
the mind rejects what the eyes saw.

Thoughts, like a mist swallows the land,
Swirl into every open crevice.
seep into those open wounds
To plant the seeds of doubt.

The eyes lie!
The mind rejects,
The senses rebel.

Did It even happen?
