Liar Lessons



We break eachother completely, whilst making others cry

we look for ways we can show we're right, but we can't justify.

We do our best to keep things hidden, but never can we hide,

the truth we know that marks our world, that breaks a heart inside.

You don't have to be evil, nor have a messed up, warped mind,

all you have to have is something special, you want to push aside.
The truth is hard to admit to when you know as much as you try,

the person on the other end may take offense and give you a goodbye.

It doesn't make much sense to some, they cannot understand why,

we sometimes choose to withold truth and turn a hasty eye.

I hope this makes sense, if not I guess I put forward a good alibi,

for I lie as much as the next person, it's human nature, so let it slide.

  • I like this piece, especially due to the ending, makes it very open, very honest, very human.

    Good write.

    I think it flowed nicer in the first four lines than the rest, but it was all lovely to read. Wonderful message. Great job.

  • Whoa. That's crazy. And throughout all that incessent rhyme, you managed (somehow) to sound extremly profound. Jealous? Me?

    The flow was amasing and it spoke of truth of how the world works. I often see life through the same perspective!!!
