Lie to me

Printer-friendly version

Lie to me

Lie to me

Tell me I’m okay.

‘cause all I see is darkness

When I look my way

My failures grow like flowers

My weakness steals my powers

so

Lie to me

And tell me I’m okay.

****

Lie to me

Tell me I’m okay

‘Cause my sin is ever before me

And I find it hard to pray

All I see is grief I’ve caused

till I wish my life had paused

So

Lie to me

And tell me I’m okay.

****

Lie to me

Tell me I’m okay

‘cause when I look in the mirror

I wonder where beauty went away

My outer flaws are seen by all who are

and within is worse by far

So

Lie to me

And tell me I’m okay

****

Lie to me

Tell me I’m okay

‘cause maybe we can make it true

And not just a game to play

In being loved I find worth

In bringing joy I find mirth

So maybe you wont have to

Lie to me

When you say I’m okay

Lie to me, or tell the truth?

Dorothy,

You have more imagination and guts than I do. Not only do you write stories and poetry, you've also put yourself out there with your blog posts on what's happening with you in Real Life (is that *really* trademarked like I've seen sometimes?). Thanks for writing what you do; your fiction is good, and the blog posts make me suspect I could be more open and honest with my therapist than I am.

May you get lots of hugs from more people than just me. Thanks for making me think.

Long I-won't-let-go-till-you-want-me-to soft hugs from me.
