Alibi

The mind. 

Such a beautiful and intricate creation.

When the heart and soul lie,
the mind is the biggest Alibi.

Yet, the thoughts and ideas that flood this space,
create also the vacancy.

As pieces lie scattered..

in tidbits all over, leaving only a trace.

These were created by

your Own hands, your Own words...

by You.

Where did the strength come from?
How was it that lies turned into lifes own song?

As secrets were being created..

So swiftly and delicately woven with sweetness.

Undermining the very beating of the heart.

The soul was the only connection to the thoughts of truth.

That should have been there from the start.

The soul was then...

Creating the Alibi

Or was it the Mind? 

The mind, that was overseeing the heart and souls 

Lie. 

For the mind has been the Alibi for so many of those, 

Carved, woven... enthralled into the very essence of being. 

And when the days are no longer numbered

and the heart fails to beat,

The mind stops it's thoughts... and the soul is set free. 

What Alibi will there be for the Lies?
