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.

Divided by love
This is not just a story-it's my story. A real, raw journey through love, betrayal, and finding my own strength. At just 17, I've faced more than I ever expected from relationships, and this book captures the emotional rollercoaster of it all. Every moment is a reflection of the truth I lived, a truth that continues to shape who I am. The chapters you read are real, and they're far from finished. This isn't a neatly wrapped tale-this is a journey still in progress. With each update, you'll experience the unfolding of my life, love, and the lessons that come from it all. This is more than a book. It's an evolving story, one that's still being written as I learn to trust myself, heal from heartbreak, and let go of the past. You're invited to witness this journey with me, because it's a story that's still being lived.![Four Years [Poetry]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/20398092-256-k291452.jpg)
