Carpet of Lies


one foot after the other
a promise kept, broken
untangled threads
a carpet weaving
the traffic never seems to stop
your words are unraveling
nothing gained
only lost
words so tainted
its crime, you’ve lost
the patterns waver
the strings come bare
soon to be un-sowing
all the lies
have left us
no more showing
shattered words
you’ve lost it all
