Liars

Lying gets you nowhere in life. It will cut you just like a knife. Don’t tell a lie it does no good. Tell the truth like you know you should. Liars irritate me so bad. They hurt my heart and make me sad. We all have lied and said it's small, knowing we should not lie at all. Lying will put you in a rut. We should just keep our big trap shut. Lying will find its way back to, show you no one believes in you. You will begin to live your lies. You'll look foolish in others eyes. I know people that lie so much. They use their stories like a crutch. Liars lie right to our faces, about time, money or places. All these lies will catch up in time. for all of them I'd take a dime. Telling the truth is really rare. People tell lies without a care. I can't handle lies told to me. Honesty is what's really key. I've lost friends over silly lies, knowing it's something I despise. Lies are easy to spread around. Spend your time where the truth is found. Just tell the truth and you'll go far. It doesn’t matter who you are. Do not tell lies take it from me. It is not who you want to be. 2/13/2017

This is a timeless piece Alex and oh so true with great heart and wonderfully expressed. The counter lines of 'truth' to the 'liars' are profound and incredibly well crafted. Beginning with the line:"Spend your time where the truth is found." belongs on your 'Quotes page'; they are THAT good! The last line is particularly GREAT :-) I love everything about your poem. Excellent writing, a great pleasure to read. blessings, lynn a fave, 7+++++! :-)
