Her Life Lie

They say that a lie is beautiful when it protects the truth.

Ngunit hindi niya alam na ang isang kasinungalingan ay maaari ring maging kulungan.

She grew up wearing smiles that were never hers.

Speaking words that were taught to her.

Living days that were carefully planned, like a story written by someone else.

Her name was known.

Her face was admired.

Her life was envied.

But behind closed doors, she was someone who didn't exist.

In a world that demanded perfection, truth was considered a dangerous luxury.

And she learned one painful lesson

Sometimes, the life you are living is the biggest lie you will ever tell.
