I put my love in a container closed the lid and said goodbye For you see, we’d become strangers those fond memories and I Bridges formed and bridges splintered since I’d harvested your words Years ago, you claimed to love me then you fed me to the birds I see you now, clearer than ever All your faults, your fakes, your flaws Deceit perfumes your gifts and gestures You speak with the devil’s drawl You see, the beauty in betrayal glints like diamonds in a chest Because of your weakness for treasure both our souls are dispossessed
