This Blog is dedicated to Dr. Beth Crachiolo, now the chair of the English and Theatre Department of Berea College. Beth is truly a wonderful person, and one hell of a teacher! For whatever reason, she seems to believe in my aptitude as a writer and has made it perfectly clear, on more than one occasion, that to not write would be a waste. So I am trying to do something I've never attempted before. Starting today, April 20, 2010, I will try very hard to post at least one new poem a day for 1 year. I'm sure most of them will be utter crap, but you never know when the muse might strike. Please feel free to respond to any post at anytime, I value constructive comments.

Lie to Me

LIE TO ME

Lie to me, tell me you need me
Tell me you want me, me and only me
Touch me, touch me like you mean it
Touch me with upmost desire
Crave me, even if you don’t
Just make me believe it
Please, Lie to me
Just for tonight, Just this once
Let me feel like I matter
Like I’m beautiful
The one you couldn’t live without
Just please lie to me
Tell me you love me
Touch me like you do
Seduce me, deceive me
In a lifetime of cruel ugly truth,
All I need is a beautiful lie
I know you don’t feel it
I know you won’t mean it
But if you say it, tonight I will believe it
Lost in your eyes, melted by your touch
Lie to me tonight
Just for tonight
Make me believe I’m worth it
Like I could have you if I wanted
If I cannot have you
If I cannot lay forever in your arms
If I cannot have love
Why not at least give me the lie?
Just one simple lie
Please!
Lie to me!
