Lie to Me

I told myself lies

Continuously

As a chlld

As a means

To keep me safe

Small lies, white lies

Big lies, with blind eyes

You see?

Lies are like bricks

Building blocks

And sticks

I made piles and piles

Of them

The lies then

They became

My dearest friend

The one who knows

me so well

In this life

They protect me

From the perceived

Hell-ish shores

This world had floundered

Me upon repeatedly

So I ask what happens

When they are all gone?

When the last takeaway

Is not the lie

But the sweet truth

That i gave away
