Beautiful Liar

by Jenni Marie   Jan 3, 2008


Every time I look at you, stomach churns with disgust
Yet I'm still easily amazed by your breathtaking beauty
How can your eyes show so much compassion and love
When I don't recall you ever uttering a word of truth?

It's true I was taken in by your sweet smile, witty charm
Though I had doubts, convinced myself you're different
Now recalling those long nights sat waiting by the phone
Can't help but laugh and mock my own stupidity

With your stunning good looks and amusing easy humor
You effortlessly managed to plant yourself in my heart
Each time words were whispered, stupidly believed you
Never guessed for a second you were taking me as a fool

Only now your deceitful ways have finally come to light
Constantly asking myself why I placed my trust in you
Should have realized underneath Prince Charming appearance
You only ever truly cared for yourself and no one else.

You're a true master at deception and misrepresentation
I'm still left wondering why I didn't figure you out earlier
No conscience, no moral and you certainly don't love
Under that perfect disguise you're another beautiful liar.
