Because of One Lie

Told a lie but didn't realize
That lie became reality
Something built inside me
It won't go away
I'm ashamed 
Why this is happening
The lie was a trick for them
Now a trick back on me
Eyes closed shut
Nose stuffed
Ears popped every five minutes
Back crunched by the second
Throat full of blood
What was i thinking of?
Could hardly breathe 
Wheres the family
Out of house
No help
Hospital I yell
No help
I fall asleep slowly
Still no family
Still no help
