"She Says"


I wrote this piece of prose after feeling like no one trusted me anymore. I had bared my heart to everyone in an attempt to be the best friend I could. I found out that a little lying is good. This became a "Prayer" song: "Prayer" was the band made from the shabby remains of "Black Annie". But that's another story.

"One lie is worth more to a friendship than all the truth in the world." (~*

She doesn't know when it began, but it can't be stopped now.
She claims that trust is her downfall.
But reallly - inside - it's her weapon, too.
The truth hurts, doesn't it?
When she knows it hurts the ones she loves.
But isn't that why she loves them?
Why she claims them from the start?

It all comes to trust.
She lets it all show; soul, body, heart.
Takes her clothes off to see what they will do about it.
Grabs his hand to feel the heat in his heart.
Takes her mask off to let them see her soul.

Too quickly, too quickly.
It always happens too quickly.
Another trap she's caught in,
Another mistake she's made.
She says that she'll never do it again
That this will be the last time.
The truth hurts, though, doesn't it.
