Lie To Me

Lie to me
Look me in my face and tell me the things my ears need to hear in order to convince my mind that  my body's not being taken advantage of.
Lie to me with the words in your eyes that tell me I can trust you.
Trust you not to stay but always to come back.
Lie to me with the carress of your body that makes me believe that this is something,
it never was and never will be.
Never will your actions match your intent. 
Your intent to break down my barriers , climb inside the wall of my ambition, and dismember the conventions of my essence.
Do you know the truth anymore?
I think you might be as lost as me, on black satin sheets wondering "what am I Doing here?"
What are you doing here
In my bed, in my house, 
Do you lie to her too?
Do you come here to find yourself or escape your mind?
Suffocating lies meant to pacify and subdue the conscious mind telling you your worth more
Your Worth more than thick thighs and low expectations
Pick your head up Queen
Hear the Truth
