Believe me, I'm a liar

Info

I lie about my status.

I lie about my relationships.

I lie about how I feel.

I lie about everything.

It started when I was a kid

A simple lie to cover up a mess

A white lie to save me from scolding

One small lie that grew to kept me holding

It became a habit

And then one day, 

I realize, I made up an entire part of my life

I don't know which is which

Every flaws I have to hide

For what I speak, I go blind

Funny to think that I write about it

When I am not sure how to fake it

Actually, maybe this is another satire

but believe me, I am a liar.

I can relate to this. But maybe it's not that you're a liar but sometimes it's easier to fake it than to explain what you feel. I dont know. I just feel like there's something deeper to this than the lies.
