Lie to the world
That’s eager for only your best,
Unwilling to be cozy in a shade-
But bask in your
sunshine,
Not by your side
on your death.
Lie to the world
That rides your
ambitions,
Smirks at the stumbles-
Vilifies your
troughs,
Sings paeans to your
crests.
Lie to the world
That trades love
for success,
Charts
convenient definitions-
Left ear loaded
with preaches,
And right, loathing
those ideals.
Lie to the world
That wants you
to only win,
Discourages imaginations
Of a more harmless
world,
Saying, ‘It’s
another lie!’
