[Poem] I Don’t Lie

Don't lie to me unless you're absolutely sure that I will never find the truth...

[Poem] I Don’t Lie

You have heard me saying this many times that 'I DON’T LIE'.

But I did.

Yes, I lied.

I lied when I said I really don’t care about who left me alone,

But inside I knew that I still do.

I lied to me when I said everything will be fine soon,

knowing that nothing could make me any better now.

I lied to me when I said I’ll forget my first love,

Hiding that piece of letter that I wrote to him, inside my diary.

I lied when I said I forget everything he had done to me,

Maybe just to avoid any further questions.

I lied when I cried for hours and I said I’m fine,

I don’t know why?

I lied to my parents for going out with you that day,

Knowing that I would punish myself for it later.

I lied to you when I said it doesn’t make me feel jealous when you talk to your best friend,

But I wished that you would tell me, ‘No one else is more important than you’.

I lied to my mother

when I told her that I don’t miss her much and I’m happy here with my friends,

just to make her believe that I’m really happy.

I lied to everyone around me to whom I smiled even when my heart was shattering into small pieces like anything.
