Lying is a survival skill. Sometimes, lying is a necessity, if not just a mere way to sugarcoat the unpleasant, dodge the unnecessary, and temporarily keep someone or something at bay. But while it is a skill to be used sparingly and with the utmost care, someone who claims to never lie... well, they've just spoken the greatest one there is.

But every lie bears weight, and even the perpetual liar may find that it eventually becomes too heavy to carry.

Deception by __AnonymousWriter

Things change, and people change even more. It's crazy how life goes, but how we deal with situations can change everything. Its fucked up but really what can we do. We try so hard not to fall, but no matter what we do, we fall anyway. Some of us get up and try again while others stay down. What we really need to do is continue moving forward. But that can be very hard. Especially when we receive bad news. Some news can change our lives forever. Life and lies go hand and hand. But, what are we really to when someone is being deceptive?

The depths of my mind and dialogue of it all. My thoughts. My fakeness. My lies. My confessions. My Raw mental conversations. My weakness. My complicated life. The nonsense that creeps up in my head when I'm thinking. There is no need to understand. There is no need to feel pity. This is Thursday.

Midnight Chronicles by M0reTHanAdrAgon

+- Sometimes the hardest battles are fought within. We all hide pieces of ourselves, but what happens when the walls break down? You can never hide forever. Pain can be a powerful teacher and often teaches us painful truths, pain never lies. In life, we sometimes face questions that have no easy answers. When words fail in real life, poetry becomes my voice, come with me on this journey, unpacking layers of betrayal, love, self-discovery and emotions that are often too complex for conversation -+
