Masquerade

You wear your lies
Like a velvet cloak
Softly stroking me into submission
The tenderness of your finger tips
Hides the hardness in your heart
Your scent is a guise
Putridness leaks silently from your pores
As we dance the dance of lovers
Masquerading in the shadows
Your secrets are mine to keep as mine are yours
It is too late as I taste the poison on your lips
My fate has been sealed
