You tell me pretty lies
thinking I won't notice
that the lies you fantasize
are without sincerity
You tell thunderous, deafening lies
hoping I won't realize
that all your beautiful promises
are without intent
But I hear it in your voice,
I see it in your stance,
these lies materialize
so you can get another chance
I don't want to be just some other girl
who fell under you spell
I want it all
But I know you're running scared
I get lost in the labyrinth
of the feelings that you hide,
buried behind smoke and mirrors,
pinched smiles, and pretty lies.

Who is telling lies to whom?
This poem is indeed a bunch of 'Pretty Lies',so CONGRATS!😁
In the first stanza the lies are a fantasy,
In the third stanza the lies materialize,
while finally you think that the lies are his defence to hide his true feelings...
Do you lie to yourself?
Sort this out and Keep writing....
Thank you for the concrit! I'll keep working on it. 🙂
Thanks for your second poem. Unfortunately most Men are liars and we lie more easily (and as you say less convincingly) than most Ladies. I can't excuse it and unfortunately when our lies are uncovered it can destroy an excellent relationship. Love the chastisement of you poem and I will try to be much more truthful in future ! Yours BRIAN
Thank you again for your kind words. You're always so nice and it means a lot.
Excellent last stanza.
Thank you. That's my favorite part too.
