Rumors

by Synh   May 4, 2006


Sounds of voices come
They come and sing to me
Beginning in my sad life
Soon entering my dreams

One by one they resonate
From singing to a screech
One minute I'm normal
The next I'm a freak

My own words are drowning
No one can nor wants to hear
Is it that they don't want the truth?
Maybe that's what people fear

A little white lie never hurt anyone
That's what everyone always says
Maybe that's why they flow like a river
Like a river that never ends

We drink from that river
Taking in it's darkest sins
Then the poison takes hold
That's when it all begins

Now come the laughs
The sniggers from their ill humor
They're all directed towards me
And it all began with your rumor
