NaPoWriMo day 2, poem 2/30. Today's prompt was to write lies. I took my initial inspiration from the fairytale "Snow White & Rose Red," and that's where the last line came from.
Little White
Don't place your hand
on the Bible but on
my heart that is always
true. Tell me the whole
and nothing but,
unwind your stories
and I'll lock them safe.
When I watch your mouth
I am looking just for words.
The words I say
have never been spoken
by anyone else,
to anyone else. What
green eyes you have
and what pale skin.
If you let me in
there will be no
transformations, I have
nothing to hide.
I will do you no harm.
