Lies

Lies

A Poem by trying_to_write

I’m not okay,

but lying to you is easier than saying what’s wrong,

because what’s wrong, scares me.

I’m afraid that telling you the truth,

will make you see me

the way I see myself.

Lovely poem. I understand your words and can relate. Very meaningful. Sometimes when we tell people how we truly feel inside, let them into our minds, often times they run away or don't stop to understand...Beautiful write (: thank you for sharing your heart with us.
