Happy lies

A Poem by Ashwin Thakur

Go forward with what you want:)

Why you want a truth?
When there is always a lie
The universal rule you always defy
The reality is same
For the brave or the lame
The reality is not the truth
Its your lies that creates your fruit
A poor rag or an expensive suit
The world is ready always to loot
Say one truth or thousand lies
It will be you the one who cries
Truth is expensive
Lie is cheap
That lie always create a heap
Truth is bitter
Lies are sweet
At last we will together make a feat
Saying truth will always make you sad
So happy lies are there for you lad.

Lies and truth

The topic on many tables today

I don't believe in being truthful all the time ..... And to claim one is .... that is a lie

Lies can sometimes sooth a soul ..... I dealt with loss in many ways ..... To hold onto a loved one i lost and making myself believe she didn't die helped me get out of bed on many days......

Believing an unkind word wasn't thrown my way ..... has helped me get in my car and drive away

Sometimes lies serve as a soother for pain .... and if lies were just pure evil they would have never existed ...... as in the nature of pure evil it dies away

Lying to save pain is not wrong in my opinion .... its the highest form of kindness ...... Given that doesn't mean one is to lie when asked for an opinion on anything

But the lies we tell ourselves help make us grow and stay strong

Everyone lies ..... but some do it to hurt ..... others do it to save a soul

So i loved this poem .... you made me think alot
as you can tell

A very deep poem indeed. it makes us think about the lies all of us have told and the truths it has created. Lies and Truth are really just two loads on the scales of balance, of happiness. Our essence can only be pure if balance is ensured. truth is not necessary if its painful, lies are not necessary if they are not cheerful. Tis true, truth makes one see deeper into things, but never forget, sometimes to look at the larger picture, one must take a step back. Lies are just truth that has not been believed. Lies are a part of existence as is truth. Some may use it to do good, others things more sinister. A great read.
