Even the Truth is a Lie

Truth: I have the exact change to pay for my fifth new pair of shoes in the last 30 days.

Lie: I just spent some of that money to climb my way out of debt.

Truth: I am a fashion student, has great style and many of my teachers say I have immense potential.

Lie: I am horribly lazy and has yet to receive an outstanding grade in any of my sewing classes.

Truth: I am a hustler and will find a way to find the money to find a way to entertain myself and get what I want.

Lie: Most of the time, that money comes from my mommy, my aunt, or my granny. So in reality, I am just spoiled and always think I should get what I want.

Truth: I have a very affectionate boyfriend who I see fairly often.

Lie: At this point, we break up everyday and I think he is quite over the relationship. There is a chance that I just verbally attack him and corner him into being with me.


Truth: My boyfriend loves me.

Lie: He also said he loved me, the exact same day he kissed a girl in his math class.

Truth: I get dressed everyday and go outside.

Lie: Most of the time, I am not going anywhere that I need to go.

Truth: I am young, beautiful, and stylish living in New York.

Lie: All of that does not equal half of the accomplishments many of peers have already achieved.

Nothing is as it seems, and sometimes a smile is masking a smirk. Sometimes love can be masking deceit. Sometimes we can overcompensate to distract from our shortcomings. I'm not exactly sure what everyone else's story is. Mine is of a little girl that never understands what is a truth and what is a lie. It's never that black and white........

Myabe the truth is a lie.
