Why You Lie
by Anganiesha  Gilliam

When I'm over your house, 
a girl calls on the phone.
You try to act like 
it?s one of your friends.
I pay it no mind 
because you think that you?re slick.
I act like I don't know, I just pretend.

But when you hang up, 
I just give you that look, 
like go ahead and lie to me.
The first thing you say is 
"that wasn't a girl"
but we both know she wasn't a he.

Why do you keep lying to me?
We been together for too long,
I thought you were keeping it real.
I guess I was wrong. 
I should have known it was a lie.
I need to wake up and say goodbye.
