Liars



They trick selfishly
Say anything they have to in the moment
They break hearts
No compassion
No morals
Fake promises- Fake feelings
Web of lies is torture
Twisting and tangling up your soul
When it is woven by someone you cared for
The wound grows deeper
Heartbreak starts with lies
Lies end with someone crying
Humans who are hurt become heartless
Ruthless and relentless
Truth and justice need to stand up
Not about defeat
Honesty should have no enemies

    Sounds like you're describing a psychopath. They're certainly troubling and somewhat of a conundrum, fun to argue with though.
