People always look for answers and causes,
In love, in happiness,
In hard times, in fear.
Sometimes it doesn’t matter,
If the answer is the truth or lie,
Just something they wish to hear.

The truth can be very painful.
In those moments,
Some chooses to tell a lie,
Because when we love someone,
We don’t want to see them cry.

But truth is a better choice,
Because lie doesn’t last long.
No matter how difficult it is,
We have to accept everything,
And be positive and strong.

Some people lie because they are bad,
Ambitious people lie,
To achieve an important gold.
They don’t think about consequences,
Just about their benefits,
Of every lie that has been told.

Honesty is rare nowadays,
Most think that,
It is people's big flaw,
They say "Don't put all your cards on the table,
Some things should remain secrets,
Others don't need to know".

People are always in dilemma,
What to say, what to do.
Is it good to share our every thought?
With the lie comes sense of guilt,
The truth brings inner peace,
But it can take away a lot.
