Beneath twilight’s glowing hue, A whisper lingers on cooling air, A secrets veiled, perhaps untrue, Or truths corrupted beyond repair.
That steady creep of quiet feet, A shadow slips where none should go, Each fleeting sound, heart’s steady beat, Each silence shreiks of what I know.
A gaze that shifts, and words that stall, Intent that lurks behind a smile, They conspire? Not one, but all? As doubt consumes, my will beguile.
Oh, cruel suspicion, you painted veil, You twist my heart, you cloud blue skies. A fleeting thought, a dark betrayal, That turns my trust to wary eyes.
And yet, beneath your binding spell, A question burns with sharpened sting: Is all you whisper truth to tell, Or just cold wind’s imagining?
Beneath the moon's silver gaze so bright, Whispers dance in the cloak of night, In shadows deep where secrets sleep, The doubts of man his heart do sweep.
Unseen eyes from the darkness peer, Through the veil of truth and fear, A furtive glance, a cautious tread, Silent words that go unsaid.
Each step a journey through the haze, A labyrinth of mind’s dark maze, Where trust is thin as morning mist, And lies like serpents coil and twist.
What truths do linger, hidden well? In silence, do they rise and swell? Suspicion’s net is finely spun, Till night's shadows yield to dawn’s first sun.
Another blinker off the pen And my head is floating in the clouds. I was feeling weightless when I heard the strangest sound.
I thought it was the wind Just blowing my senses in. But a shadow crept Closer now to where I slept.
I called out into the night, Who lurks there in the dark? Surely, I’m not losing my mind. My senses are still somewhat sharp.
Alas, my mother would disagree. She says I’m smoking too many trees. Put down the devil’s lettuce And get on your knees.
Pray the temptation away And live to see another day. Perhaps it is her on the other side, Nagging me until I die.
suspicion comes suspicion goes suspicion confirms what everyone knows
suspicion reflects suspicion suspends suspicion won’t break suspicion just bends
suspicion controls suspicion withdraws suspicion reverbs what the mockingbird calls
suspicion lays down at the foot of your bed suspicion will twist all the words that weren’t said
suspicion compares suspicion denies suspicion continues when everyone dies
Side eyes and glances So many chances Should we run Or stay for the fun
Discussions and meetings Unspoken feelings Who is the one And why is there suddenly none
I pray to the lord I live another day I’m scared if I lie down I might see my last sun ray
Arguing and taking Someone is faking A shot is fired Everyone is tired
Is it really worth it in the end Whenever everyone is gone, past on the mend
A finale showdown Once the enemy is found Only one is left But that wasn’t for the best
I walk out alive Yet I’m not glad I survived I am still here Yet I am not near
I wonder if they will figure out, The one piece to the puzzle, That one folded page in the book, Or the frame that is slightly out of place.
Or maybe their clueless, Staring at it too deeply, As Annabell Rose is long gone.
Their cluelessness amuses me, I’m an open book ready to be read, But they don’t read me. They read everyone else, As someone like me could never have done it.
I don’t always know if I’m right But a stuttering person Who stutters day and night My just be a stutterer Or maybe a liar
I don’t always get fashion That’s for sure but black Clothing at night Offers a glance at robbery Later on
I try. It to judge but who knows Maybe I’m living among a cereal Killer who acts as normal as can be Maybe he’s just trying to fit in Who knows
But it doesn’t matter. Just watch What you do and what others do Who knows, maybe your the suspect Doesn’t matter though ‘Cause everyone here is suspicious
Used to trust each other, No doubt we have a good time. One day those negatives occurred, Selfish, fakement plus dishonest, and more. Separated us from each other. Replaced with suspicion, distrust, feel strange to close friends… We still believe in the power of love, Hope one day can trust each other again.
