Dear Reader,

It all starts with a single lie,

But soon spreads like a wildfire.

They pile on and on,

Until pretty soon, you are drowning.

Scream- none will hear you.

None will see you.

These falsehoods, they will consume you,

Eat at the very culmination of your being,

Destroy your soul, shatter it to bits.

They shred your hope,

Tear at your dreams,

And burn them to the ground.

These lies,

they suck the very life out of you,

Leaving you as a hollow shell.

So simple, yet so deadly.

It all starts, with a single lie.

~ Sincerely, an Unknown Soul
