The Great Sea of Lies

July 12, 2017
By Anonymous

Lies are like droplets of water, they accumulate and make a puddle of dysphoria
Lies are buckets of water slowly dragging you down to the ground
Lies are germs, viruses that expand and take over
You can't let the lies take over
You can't let the happiness take over because there is no such thing in the universe as true happiness sometimes it is important to be sad and stupid and melancholy. 

Don't let the sea of lies become a tsunami tearing through the happy little wall you built for yourself. 
If you let the sea invade your life you all be shielded by the thin little wall that you try to cower behind but you can't.

I hope that people see how easily lies that we tell ourselves and other people slowly accumulate and become something terrible. Sometimes the lie can be the easy way out but in the long run it may be the bad decision.
