“he put a veil over his wrongdoings that’s what he did it was tenderness and lust that’s what it was that’s what it looked like it should have been It should have been... but somewhere between the candied kisses and frigid disputes, came dead air and their love turned fictitious; misrepresented by Facebook posts and “cheerful” photographs his palms became like ice, his words like hail and he tore off the very mask that had fooled her But it was too late her body laid charred; tattered, weary and drawn her soul had vanquished the light was gone” — Alexis Bedard, The Stranger's Veil
he put a veil over his wrongdoings
that’s what he did
it was tenderness and lust
that’s what it was
that’s what it looked like
it should have been
It should have been...
but
somewhere between the candied kisses and
frigid disputes,
came dead air
and their love turned fictitious;
misrepresented by Facebook posts
and “cheerful” photographs
his palms became like ice,
his words like hail
and he tore off the very mask
that had fooled her
But it was too late
her body laid charred;
tattered, weary and drawn
her soul had vanquished
the light was gone
