Poem
If I had lied like everyone else who achieved their goal, I could have spared myself an useless headache, and it seems late to realize that my honesty caused a mess! There was a table for two sweethearts in the finest restaurant, my first date supposed to have been perfect with all the enthusiasm and the sorrounding athmophere: a boutique of roses and scented candles! The girl's name was Amenda with big eyes of sapphire, the boy's name was Andrew a little outspoken but funny; everything went smoothly, the food was superb and the waiter with an Italian accent was humorous and helpful, but happened next is something nobody would believe. Amenda had too much wine and started to talk non-sense asking me, " What kind of work do you do?" I promptly replied, " I am a chief ! " and boasting with pride, silly words flowed from my mouth, " You should see me in my uniform...everybody loves it! " Amenda with angry eyes yelled, " Everybody...including the dumb blonde and the red headed who order food just to see you? " I jolted as if in a powerful earthquake, " How do you know that? " But she with a malignant glance exploded, " I saw them flirting with you while they waited for their order! " " Oh, pretty boy, you brought me here to listen to your aspiration, I must be stupid enough to believe everything you say? " I stood up, pushing back my seat and swore, " I never intented to lie, Amanda...I am sorry for getting you upset, and if my honest caused a mess, I apologize with all sincerity. " Ah, you even mention the word sincerity: here's you reward, fool! " And splashing a glass of wine all over my sharp suit, she left...while the crowd started to laugh, thinking it was a movie scene. Here's my deepest reflection on telling little, white lies, " Guys, on your first date...don't say what you actually do for a living, invent a profession that brings in tons of money, like a surgeon or attorney; go ahead and have fun, and the more excited you get her, the more she'll believe you...who wants to be a loser on his first date? "
