Tell me the truth of your lies,
Tell of your deities and fallacies,
Show me the reasoning behind your smile,
Tell me of the reasoning behind your naked pursuit,
Tell of the things you never speak of,
Show what you are afraid of,
Tell the man and woman,
Tell it to me,
And Show it,
And Tell it,
And then,
Leave.

Honestly,this was a mess. I understood what you were saying but the words you chose and how you organized them was just sloppy...seems like you tried too hard sorry >.<

I guess it could also be interpreted as the narrator slowly having a lack of connection with the person s/he is addressing, and then ending up angered about it, and wishing instead to withdraw than solve the problem. ^^haha

Great poem. ^^I like how it sounds demanding, and due to the lack of explanation from the person the narrator is addressing, it ends with the words "leave," showing a sort of contempt for the person's "un-understandable-ness" ("show me the reasoning behind your smile," etcetera) ^^haha
