The Truth Is Only a Lie In Training.

You never know how winning feels until you lose, you never know how love feels until you're 
heart broken, you never know how it feels to live until you're on your death bed, and you 
never know how wonderful the truth is until someone has lied to you. Right now I'm doing 
something I don't usually do, I'm apologizing. I say she lied, but by stating that I broke my 
honesty by doing the one thing I said I would never do, hurt her. See what I thought what 
was the truth and she thought was the truth was the same thing, but in the end two different 
lies came out of it. Two lies that we were forced to live with because it was the truth. I know 
once Suave and the rest of ColdCash see this they gone be pissed, but I broke a promise that 
I vowed to keep forever. All I have in this world is my balls and my word, and I broke my 
word because of the anger that built up inside of me. That's no excuse because I've always 
been a man of my word before, but this time I felt as if being the bigger person was 
overrated. Sure I do feel like she lied to me and I do feel as if she is fake by doing so 
because of the things she said to me before, but that's not gonna change the fact that I love 
her with all my heart, it's not gonna change the fact that I broke a promise, and it's also not 
gonna change the past. I was told as a young man by my father to live life freely however 
you please, and don't ever regret a decision you have made, just let it happen and don't look 
back. Now I see that he was incorrect in that statement because if you love someone or 
something you are willing to bust your balls, break your word, and stomp your own pride just 
to make that person happy. So there it is the truth THE COMPLETE TRUTH, and today I'm 
saying that I apologize Sheridan because even tho I felt you were wrong and you lied I lied in 
the process, but what I'm stating is the truth. I will always love you no matter what.

This is an excellent prose poem. It flows very well and states some specifics. I like the testimonial techniques used in different sections. The title is also consistent with the theme as it weaves it way through the lines. Great job and welcome to Poetry Soup! ~Joseph

Coldcash - I once wrote in one of my books that three people can view the same thing and all tell the truth based upon their view of reality - we all see through eyes that are based on our view of reality therefore we all see reality in different ways - Three people seeing one thing through three totally different views of reality - one story three tales type of thing - Enjoyed your read - God Bless, MJ
