The many lies we tell ourselves,
they're almost real.
I can believe them.
I can live with them.
I can be happy,
I can not love you
I can not care.
I can do this.
I can.
If you just don't
look at at me,
like I'm your muse.
Don't touch me
till my skin burns.
Don't kiss me
till my toes curl.
Don't tell me
you love me,
Please, don't.
Coz if you do,
The many lies we tell ourselves,
I might just believe them.
