I drank the lies you poured 

And they sat on my lips,

Glistening. 


I cleaned up the mess 

When you spilled more. 


I realized that the words that you splashed all over me, 

Left me stained. 


The spill got bigger

And I realized it wasn’t my fault 

When you slipped over the mess I didn’t clean up for you this time.
