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.

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 -+
