Lies, Lies, Lies
You lie about lying
When the truth would do
You don't even know
You believe your own lies
But I can see through
Your evil disguise
It's impossible with you
To know exactly what's true
Only a fool would attempt
To argue with someone like you
One day all of your lies
Will catch up with you
When the truth would do
You don't even know
You believe your own lies
But I can see through
Your evil disguise
It's impossible with you
To know exactly what's true
Only a fool would attempt
To argue with someone like you
One day all of your lies
Will catch up with you

I love this. Being dishonest makes things so complicated. I'm guilty of lying but I've often confessed to the truth, too. How did you do the illustration. It's very pretty and fits the message.

Some people have been living and operating like this for so long that this has become their essence. You did a great job here with the flow also, really tight Lady

This poem captures the frustration and complexity of dealing with someone who habitually lies, even to the point where they may believe their own falsehoods. The portrayal of the liar as wearing an "evil disguise" suggests a deliberate deception that can be deeply harmful.
The lines also convey a sense of futility in trying to discern the truth from the web of lies spun by such a person. The speaker recognizes the difficulty in engaging with someone who operates in deceit, implying that it's pointless to argue or reason with them.
Furthermore, the poem warns of the eventual consequences of a life built on lies, hinting at the idea that eventually, the truth will catch up with the liar. Overall, it's a poignant reflection on the challenges and dangers posed by deception and the importance of honesty in relationships and society.
