lies


The world and all its relationships Many at times, it's the lies and not the truth that can brings them peace Lies gives rest to uncertainty Lies gives people a sense of peace For truth are more uncomfortable to handle than the lies They will get mad at you for speaking the truth Because they're living in lies Thus, most people want to avoid the truth Oh! you're not exception Relaying the truth is always painful That's why once in awhile when you're faced with the truth You choose to close your eyes Dear you, telling the truth may hurt for a little while But a lie hurts forever Oh! Slap me with the truth And kiss me not with a lie ©️ Ibratosyn'21 Voice of reason
