Why I Lie
Lies
 They slip
 My mouth
 Unable to check them
 
 Why?
 
 The simple answer:
 I lie to impress you
 I lie because I am inadequate
 I lie because I want your picture of me to be untarnished
 
 The real answer:
 I lie because I don't want you to see the boring side of me
 I lie because I want to feel better about myself
 I lie because I need something to define me
 Good or bad,
 Lies define me
