Duplicity

Deception....weaving that tangled web...

Duplicity

You were the hardest one to fool,
you knew me inside out,
knew my innermost thoughts, hopes, desires.
It took some planning,
twisting and deceiving,
a lifetime of lowered eyes..
An age of turmoil
battles raging, old versus new,
centuries old conundrum,
would peace ever reign?
Raw pain.
A rebirth.
An awakening, a dawning,
the gold in the river of blackness.
Understanding settles
why even try...
I can't lie anymore,
I know myself too well,
for how can you fool yourself?
