At times in life being distracted a thought frowns at me
that “Why Can’t I Lie?”
Why the unbreakable thread of innocence binds me with
sullen believe?
Lust engulfs,
Being puzzle
I reply,
Why Can’t I Lie?
Examination torments,
Results suffer,
Parents inquire, “How’s marks”?
Being sorry
I reply,
Why Can’t I Lie?
Company’s recruits,
Destiny blackens,
Acquaintances
laugh, “Where’s going”?
Being perturb
I reply,
Why Can’t I Lie?
Heart sinks,
Life camouflages,
God whips, “What’s
happening”?
Being
crushed I reply,
Why Can’t I Lie?
