Living a Lie

POEMS Living a lie How many of us are living a lie We know that we are not being true to ourselves We walk around with a mask on Not letting people see us for who we really are We try to please others instead of ourselves We let others walk over us because we love them But who is living the lie You or them Yeah it’s you Living a lie Stop the lie Live the truth Take it from me I am not proud That I am living a lie By VABeauty

Your poem makes me wonder when we all collectively decided this is how we're going to do things. I know for me its an armor against the barrage, and perhaps even partial allies are allies enough. Anyhow, thank you for this piece.
