People say you shouldn't lie, <br />Sometimes I wonder why, <br />Truth can be painful, <br />Truth gives you grief, <br />Truth is decieving, <br />That's to say the least. <br /> <br />A little white lie, <br />It never hurts, <br />No you don't look fat in this, <br />Yes that's a great skirt, <br />Everyones happy, <br />But I told a lie, <br />People may tell me not to, <br />Still wondering why.<br /><br />Shannon Walshe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/truth-hurts-3/
