Liars

Im a real guy,
With real eyes,
I realize the real lies,
I read between the lines,
See through the thin disguise,
Everyone tries to cry wolf to me,
Telling me things expecting belief,
They repeat the same stories,
Of yesterdays glories,
Layed out before me,
This web of deciet,
No surprise now when lies
Come from everyone I meet,
Through their teeth,
Come tales,
Some great and some small,
How they did big things,
How they lost it all,
What is it called?,
Its no longer a fib,
It gets more involved,
as they make up shit,
Remembering only lies,
They're all that they've got,
Cant tell anymore whats real,
Whats not,
This is exactly how they seem to think,
White lies grow dark as fast as they blink,
Black as night like stars they wink,
I sink,
Into a realm of distrust,
Watching everyone,
Wondering what they want...

Lies, a sticky web indeed. What is kept in the dark will always be found with a light. I don't think a liar understands the ripple effect it causes, cause honestly thats all any of my lies have ever brought. Good write my friend...Jessewine

I know the feeling, the world is full of fantasists, they truly deserve pity. There is only one person I trust in this whole world, the one person who will never let me down, that person is myself. Super write. hug purple heart
