Lies

by sarah k   Nov 24, 2004


I’m lost in these lies
That I’ve made for myself
To hide from the pain
And the knife on my shelf.
The relief was once tears
That fell from my eyes
And now it’s the cuts
And the death calling cries.
And the more that I wish
For this pain to subside
The longer I live
While dying inside.
But you think that I’m perfect.
That my life is so great,
But why can’t you see,
I’m the centre of hate.
This laughter’s a lie
And so are these smiles
The list of my lies
Could continue for miles.
But I bid you farewell
As I now say goodbye
These lies will come with me
As I lay down and die.
