cheaters riddle

poem by: Theresa Taylor
Written on Dec 05, 2016

Riddle me this
Riddle me that
How to stop love at the drop of a hat?

Don't choose it
Don't feed it
Avoid it
Don't believe it

Then find someone new 
who makes your heart coo
And do something you thought you'd never do
Tell a little lie about being true

Choose it 
Feed it
Stop avoiding it
Let yourself believe it

It's a tangled web of deseat and desire
You're choking our love and feeding the fire
I try to rebuild but the flames just get higher
I'm catching on now and flushing out the liar

Now you riddle me this
And you've riddle me that
I can see through you
and that... is... that
