True Lies/ A.G.K

Even when I told you that I lied,
Even then,
I was lying.
I’m not accustomed to telling the truth,
I go where my tongue takes me to,
I go.
I die going.

Because it’s
Difficult
To breakdown truths
into
Small measurements
of exposure.

There are other words
Less calculated
That say
A lot.

But I’m already used to it,
I am a skilled craftsman.
It comes with the territory
It comes
Stealthily.

Behold how every door is slammed shut;
Still the tongue recites success,
Every time I fall apart
