Bitter Lies


A Bitter Lie

Test of true courage

New colors are revealed

Love? Hate?

Very fine line…

Both need

Courage, wisdom, and strength

Friends help along the way

In then end one or two will stay

Most of them will go away

And it is you that pays

Courage to do great things

Wisdom to help see things

And Strength to help grow your wings

But is this is a bitter lie,

Why do we have these?

Because it reveals true

Friendship and people who care

But in the end it’s all

A Bitter Lie

I love animals and I suffer from mental illnesses so I am severely against bullying.
