to be a bad sleuth

saw this... loved it...rueful was my smile

...................
 

...for those deluded by the lies of another...

"...it does take courage to face that which u know

why care to not show
that your intelligence they undermine
total disrespect near abuse of your well-being...they tread that fine line...
do u not care for your worth ..?
their lies, a tight girth
that holds u captive in false hope
to a non-existent lifeline grope...
for to admit to their lies
means so much of what was, dies...
and u be left empty, and  forlorn,
to shreds every part of u torn?

what is it that allows us such an indiscretion?
be it with the other an obsession?
the fear that they may leave
their lies a magic, on ones sanity weave.

so yes...it does take courage for some
with the lies of another to be done,
so further to look for the truth
to prefer to fail...and be a bad sleuth..."
