Truthful Lies<\/p>\n
Sometimes I wonder,<\/p>\n
as I gaze into your eyes.<\/p>\n
Could you be thinking<\/p>\n
that my heart is full of lies?<\/p>\n
You seem to doubt me<\/p>\n
when I\u2019m\u00a0 whispering to you<\/p>\n
my inner feelings<\/p>\n
that are only just for you.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sometimes I blunder,<\/p>\n
but, I am not telling lies.<\/p>\n
Still, you\u2019re not believing.<\/p>\n
I can tell it in your eyes.<\/p>\n
I want to tell you<\/p>\n
what I\u2019m feeling deep inside.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s overwhelming,<\/p>\n
as I lay there by your side.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I say \u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n
You say you don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n
I ask you \u201cWhy?\u201d<\/p>\n
You say I ought to know.<\/p>\n
Why must it always<\/p>\n
be the same old show?<\/p>\n
I say \u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n
But, you don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sometimes like thunder<\/p>\n
passion beats within my thighs.<\/p>\n
I try to fool you.<\/p>\n
But, I wear a thin disguise.<\/p>\n
My feeble efforts<\/p>\n
quickly make me realize.<\/p>\n
A woman\u2019s needs<\/p>\n
Are much different than a guy\u2019s.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sometimes I wonder,<\/p>\n
as I gaze into your eyes.<\/p>\n
What is your meaning<\/p>\n
when you say that I\u2019m not wise?<\/p>\n
I try to tell you,<\/p>\n
but, it never comes out right.<\/p>\n
It always seems<\/p>\n
such efforts start a fight.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I say \u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n
You say you don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n
I ask you \u201cWhy?\u201d<\/p>\n
You say I ought to know.<\/p>\n
Why must it always<\/p>\n
be the same old show?<\/p>\n
I say \u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n
But, you don\u2019t think so.——————R. W. Johnson—–(1994)<\/p>\n
