I am a liar
A pretender
A player, playing the game
A hypocrite
Watching
and hoping that no one sees
the real me
The secrets that I hold
The fear I hide
The sadness I mask
The wounds I conceal
The scars I cover
The pain I bury
A truth I can't tell
I stand accused
By friends
By enemies
I have no regrets
nor any remorse
I do not intend
to defend myself
or hire a lawyer
to save me from the gallows
I just want to say
Only once
Just this once
I did not kill anyone
Only I carry
A truth I can’t tell
