LieA Poem by Favour AchileLies can become comforting shields against painful truths, offering escape but also shaping identity in darkness. Is it just a way to survive or self-imprisonment?It’s easier to lie To tell other’s something other than the
truth To tell stories outside the fact To paint a picture contrary to reality It’s easier to say you’re ugly When no one wants to talk to you Easier to say you are unworthy for task When it seems bigger than you Easier to say you won’t fit anywhere When your best of friend throws you out It’s easier to say Love is not meant for
you When all you ever got from others is hate It’s easier to say hope is a fallacy When all you’ve got is disappointment It’s easier to say faith is a lie When all your truth have been tested by lie And nothing was left It’s easier to shut yourself up from the
truth It hurts to much To heavy to bear When you’ve already filled your heart with
lies They are comforting Makes you forget the past Or you relive them Grow in darkness And refine yourself with the words it speaks Coming out a different person Born out of lies But then, is it actually true? © 2025 Favour Achile |
