One lie leads to another lie a wise one once did say <br />And you must tell another lie tomorrow for the lie you told today <br />The truth is always better the truth will set you free <br />Of the sort of guilt that those who lie live with or so 'twould seem to me. <br /> <br />'Tis easy to be evasive and 'tis easy for to lie <br />But the person who tells you the truth can look you in the eye <br />And tell you as you should be told with them you know where you stand <br />People like them earn your respect and trust since about them nothing underhand. <br /> <br />Those who find it easy for to cheat and lie have lost their sense of fair play <br />What goes around always comes around they don't see it that way <br />They do not believe in karma and cannot see wrong in their dishonesty <br />In trustworthiness in others a weakness they only see. <br /> <br />One lie leads to another lie and some for financial gain <br />Will cause hardship to others and how can one explain <br />How some people can cheat and lie and not feel any guilt or shame <br />But Humanity is made of all kinds of people and no two are the same.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/one-lie-leads-to-another-lie-a-wise-one-once-did-say/
