Lie
You see my dear,
there are many different lies.
Lies i tell my mother from things that i must hide.
How my dress is shorter than usual
and why hips began to expand.
Or the kind of lies i tell you
to things you misunderstand.
My lies are different shades of gray
mostly close to white.
But all my lies are unexplainable
and usually better write.
I lie to preserve my dignity
i lie because i care.
I lie because on certain occassions
things are better left unshared.
I've maintained a certain threshold
of reasons why i lie.
Like the time i told it was nothing
when i began to cry.
The truth they say!
The" Truth"!
In life, “the illusion” is often prettied up
to sell, to convince you to tell you that i love you.
To smother you with kisses
and suffocate with hugs
so i can mask up all my lies
to prove to you truth lies love.
