Why Live a Lie

You live a lie, you die a lie. When the truth falls down It lands on broken promises And shattered dreams. Why do some people lie habitually? Do they enjoy their phony lives? Do they enjoy hurting others? Do they enjoy hurting their loved ones? When we walk in truth we are lauded for it. Others desire to be in our presence, Because they know where they stand with us. But for those who speak lies they are dismissed. In the light of truth there is nothing Dark or foreboding. Trust flourishes, Love blooms Dreams are fulfilled, promises are kept and deciete has no place. Anger and disappointment are not known In the light of truth because hearts are not broken there. So why live a lie?
