Untruths

Oh and how true, your troubles remain... You've hidden your fingerprints In her long dark mane Sold all of your secrets For the price of a tall drink.... What did you really imagine she'd think? Then polished your brown boots Arrogance slicked back your hair.. Quickly passing a mirror, You wished wasn't there... Rehearsed all your answers to the questions That fly.... With no place left to run to...and even much more to hide You gathered your jacket, belt-buckled your blues... And wished someone else walked in your shoes.. A kiss, one last glance, an 'I'm sorry...so long' Vanished into the night, where she'd never belong.
