Fib And Fiddle All Day Long by Angel In Tears

I lied. I sinned.
I cry for what I did.
The demon took me over,
I was weak, couldn’t fight,
Couldn’t resist.

The sweet temptation.

Oh, how lovely you are,
How evil and horrible you act?

You have me fallen to be bad,
Or have you just opened what was right, deep, deep inside?
You make hours worthwhile in the day,
You make me melt, like ice-cream under hot summers rays.

This is something which I do,
Fib and fiddle, because it hurts to tell the truth.
Even though,
You still managed to stab me and poison myself with my words.
Medicine is bad, but taken with sugar its easier to live,
To face what I really did.

so true so true
Angel! I remember back when I was a little crumbsnatcher, I used to tell lies so much that it became the norm for me. I wanted to quit altogther, but it was a habit until I had to force and make myself tell the truth even though I dreaded the consequence to come. After all was said and done, I felt relieved and a little lighter after carrying all that weight around for a long time. Magnificent poem!
