to all your expectations
trap my hands
in their everpresent state
the guillotine dropping the blade

i've never sold you my lies
this is penance
and believe
in my abilities
to rectify my own pursuits
i am forever
and dwelling
in dues

owed, paid

Sacrafice these wrists
to bleed
fidelity, infidelity
who is me?
whispered on the forearm
scratched through the flesh
this is my best

i've never sold you my lies
this is my penance
for disbelief
rectify my feeble pursuit for truth
i'm lost and dwelling
in the dues

it's good, really good. I like the first stanza a lot

" render me useless to all your expectations.. trap my hands" - very thoughtful and well written.

as well, the repetition of never selling your lies sounds so very sincere. Keep it up
