Liars

Lies of omission
grown in
the silence between
take on lives of their own
robbing from each
our secrets
stolen from the justified
and vulnerable,
borrowed on fear
until grown
bloated and taut, truth
springs unguarded from
lips fully
formed, as virulent
as a virus without
an antidote
yet, having the power
to heal the troubled
heart of a liar
