she asked him
why he had turned away
at the sound of their lovely compliment.
he told her
it was because they spat venom
when the sweet was brushed from their tone.
she asked him
why he rejected
their beautiful words
filled with kindness.
he told her
it was because voices
were the masks that hid
the faces of
liars
and their
insults.
