Lie

Lie

A Poem by Lady Scarlet Valuten

I lie to people

So I don’t get caught

I lie to people

Cause it’s the easiest thing that’s bought

I lie to my family

So they’re not ashamed of me

I lie to my family

Because it’s the only way they’ll accept me

I lie to my friends

So they don’t have to worry

I lie to my friends

So they don’t know why I’m hurting

I lie to you

So I don’t hurt you too

I lie to you

Because you’ll tell them what’s true

But every single time I lie

I go through hell

Cause every time I do

I’m just lying to myself

(I lie to my family Because it’s the only way they’ll accept me) This is such a sad statement. Everyone should be loved and accepted just as they are...no lies necessary. Well written. ~Sharon
