They look you straight in the eye.
Smile their sweet smile, separate their lips.
Because all they do is lie, lie, lie.

They part their lips without a sigh,
Take a deep breath; your heart rips.
They look you straight in the eye.

They make you feel like you should die,
Rip your heart out; break it apart.
Because all they do is lie, lie, lie.

You want to scream, you want to cry.
Tears pour down, exposed is your heart.
They look you straight in the eye.

You don't want him to say goodbye.
But, do what's right; do what's smart.
Because all they do is lie, lie, lie.

The numero uno rule when dating a guy,
Is to avoid him before he unzips.
They look you straight in the eye.
Because all they do is lie, lie, lie.

&quot;I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater.&quot; -SN

This is a really great poem.  You may want to avoid using Spanish, though, it sort've ruined the tempo.  But overall it was really good.
