I spoke lies, a garbage pile of lies
So demeaning, so hate-ridden
That my heart is now heavy
With all things forbidden.
I meant well. May you not forgive me
For a brain so heated, so defeated?
May you not regale me as old friends
Do? Completely let loose I speak falsities.
I didn't mean to hurt you, belittle you.
All I sought was some succour from
My mundane existence and hence I
Cooked up a garbage pile of lies.
Some day when I see you by the bend
On a rainy day for you my sunny friend
May you remember that I sought not to blame
But to relive the days gone by of dishonesty.
I spoke lies. All lies. All those words cooked
Up from building castles in the air. Is it fair
To condemn me? Is it fair to take me to the gallows?
Truth prevailing and abounding-- I am not a lie.
