The clever ones

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Many faces amongst us None of which we can trust It's troubling to know That we could never show Who we are The most clever trick Is to make others believe in you When in the end you were never true Leaving those that trusted in you To thrive in revenge Hate and envy is common But it's not from strangers we don't know It's from those that love us Or better yet The clever ones Written December 18th, 2001 © on Dec 18 2001 02:02 PM PST 0 • 1
