There many ways to tell stories
And many people tell them
Many will tell you
All the many reasons
A father will tell stories
To give the children a scare
A mother will tell stories
To calm her children's fears
Friends will tell stories
To get a laugh from you
Guy will tell stories
To make others think their cool
But from you I want the truth
About where you've been
I know you've been lying
And telling stories to me
Author notes
This is so true. oh and # 84 rocks

Love it. I especially like how the last stories you write of are in such direct contrast to all the others beforehand--they all have such positive connotations, and the last one is just plain despondent. Great job
