Submerge

Your friend,

Is my enemy.

My enemy has a tower of words.

A tower of lies.

My enemy will drown me.

In a sea of words.

A sea of lies

Lies baked beneath their eyes.

And let me rise,

Or maybe not.

Such lies, drip,

Drip drop, drip drop.

And I feel like they might fall.

But his lies— still stand tall.

Move, they say.

Move away.

But this water is as thick as glue.

What can I do?

So drown me.

Drown me, my friend.

In his sea of words,

His sea of lies.

And lie to me, my friend.

Convict me of his lies.

Lies— baked beneath your eyes.

And I might believe them too.
