An only lie

Smile plastered on your face
Everytime you are in so much hates
You're good in wearing a pleasant mask
Pretending that you're still okay even you're crushed

But, they didn't know
One lie was hiding in your eyes
It could be bad or nice
One clue, you raised;
It's your true feeling you don't want to trace

In a glimpse of sunrise
You want to disappear
Cause you're tired in pretending again
And you wished before the sunset resurface; you don't want to witness the sunrise reappear

You desperately giving up
Slowly untying the permeable pressures and prejudice strand that bound in yourself
Trying to ease the tension within you
Knowing after hurting you, they left
And you can't help but to bear the pain
That's why you made a lie
An only lie that saves you from wandering eye
"I'll set myself free" you said

And then the next day,
Finally, you are free
They found you resting.
Unbreathing.
"I want to live more." you noted as your only lie; unsaid.
