PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Lies that i'm afraid to tell

Lies that will send me to hell

They tell me i defend myself

I lie to build a protective shell

An invisible jail cell

Maybe it is just as well

I've been hurt

And i've been torn

Do i lie to you?

No, i've sworn

I cannot see 

How it is you still trust

How you still believe 

In the honesty

Of me
