7 Lies
We are friends.
One.
We are the same.
Two.
My family likes you.
Three.
We can hang out.
Four.
Stop…
Do you even know what a lie is?
Do you have any idea,
what you are saying?
We are not friends,
because your father will kill you.
We are not the same,
as you have been taught to lie is okay,
I have not.
Our families,
they are similar,
there are members,
but they are not the same.
You and I can never hang out.
Maybe when you are free?
Maybe not…
Your parents are busy,
trying to make sure,
that never happens for you,
while they take it,
from me.
