when sweet words roll off
your appealing tongue,
i find myself hesitating

to search for the truth.

if it had been a year earlier,
in the beginning of june,
i would have foolishly believed
every direct pronoun
and poorly worded sentence
that slid out of your
filthy, deceitful mouth.

Great points in this poem.
