The Liar

Silence is better

So you had to lie again

In all those broken promises

Leaving everything in shambles

Every word you say is discounted

No one believes you anymore

Can you just not say it if not true

Even would be better if you would remain silent

Sarah Danaher

I enjoy writing for fun. I like to write for several genres including fantasy, poetry, and dystopian, but I am open to trying other genres too. It has been a source of stress relief from my busy life.
