LIE TO ME

By Sheila Mumbo

Lie to me,
Tell me I’m everything you’ve ever wanted,
Everything you’ve ever wished for,
Even when you hate every being of me,

Lie to me,
Pretend to care as you hold me close,
Show me I have a place in your cold heart,
That I could run to if I need you,

Lie to me,
Intoxicate me with your sweet little lies,
Lie close to me and look when I’m naked,
Show me you’re going nowhere,

Lie to me,
Lie that in the end you’ll be mine,
That you see me when you sleep at night,
Say I’m the luckiest girl in the world. ,
Please, just fake it.
