SWEET DECEPTION

AS CLOSE AS THE STARS ARE TO THE SKY,
SO WERE OUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER,
PEOPLE THAT KNEW ABOUT OUR FRIENDSHIP 
OFTEN SAID, 
WE WERE LIKE TWINS BROTHERS,
FROM DIFFERENT MOTHERS.

WE CARED AND SHARED EVERY THOUGHT,
MY CLOTHES WERE YOURS TO WEAR,
AND THE CONFIDENCE WE HAD IN EACH OTHER,
DISPELLED, HELL’S FEARS.

I TRUSTED YOU WITH MY LIFE,
AND I NEVER THOUGHT FOR ONE SECOND,
THAT YOU WOULD BE IN LOVE
WITH MY WIFE. 

OH! THE WOUNDS OF A FRIEND,
HOW DEEP THE DAGGER IS THRUST,
WITH SMILES AND SYMPATHETIC EYES 
YOU DEFRAUDED ME… A FRIEND,
WITH YOUR CALCULATED LIES. 

BUT AS A FRIEND
I MUST GIVE YOU A WARNING,
EVEN THOUGH 
YOU HAVE DESTROYED MY LIFE.

THE WOMAN YOU ARE MARRIED TO TODAY,
WILL TOMORROW BE
SOMEONE ELSE’S WIFE.

WILFORD BARKER.
