The First Truth
lalalalalaaaaa pt. 2
I hate being hurt,
Yet I hurt others.
I hate being lied to,
Yet I lie to others.
I make promises I can never keep
Yet I hope others keep theirs,
I crave honesty,
Yet hide behind my own lies
I judge,
Yet hope to never be judged.
I put others down,
Yet I hope to always be complimented.
I believe in selflessness,
Yet I am selfish.
I betray others
Yet hope to never be betrayed.
I believed I was perfect,
I believed I did everything right.
As I convinced the world with my disguise
That was my first lie,
My biggest lie.
A lie I told myself
I do hurt,
I do lie,
I do break promises,
I do judge,
I do put others down,
I do act selfish,
I do betray,
I am not perfect
now I accept it,
And that was the first truth I told myself.


I love your poem,
