Haunted...

PAD Challenge day 13: Write a memory poem


He has forgotten what Truth is
His addiction to lies
Becoming a way of life

Now he is trying to remember
Which lie he told to whom
And when…

Of, if only he
could go back to the beginning 
again...

Kid's Poem on Telling the Truth




I ought to never tell a lie
‘Cause lies like company
And soon the lie that first was one
Turns into two or three
For when a lie begins to lose
Its word-woven disguise
We protect it from the truth
By telling some more lies
And suddenly it’s hard to tell
How many lies were said
So it is always wise and well
To tell the truth instead
