Softer lies

Shadows tell softer lies
Than mirrors
Than your eyes
Than your lips
Than your calloused hands
Possessively draping my hips

I know I don't belong
But where I'm meant to be isn't clear
So keep telling those lies
Loudly enough for me to hear

I won't look at the wall
At the way the light plays tricks
On our lines
Blending one into another
When separate is what we are

​You say that you mean it

I know that I don't
Unable to tell a lie
So I won't
