He's running at my open door

faster than he's run before

and as I see a tear stream by

torn by wind from his left eye

I slam the door on his embrace

I cut the prize out of his race

but with my hand still hesitating

I watch his just keep right on racing

Spinning, Sprinting past my door

into hers forever more

and the tear ripped from his left eye past

Slammed against my shaken glass

Splattered care

and there desire

Threw his honest lies like fire

and as the tear

once damp, once clear

starts to dry 

it's as I fear

the glass through which I had once trusted

what I saw was now so crusted

over with the salt of lies

hidden once in wet disguise
