In the end the deceiver loses
whether it is the ones who tell the lies or the ones who believe them and deceive themselves.  It is hard to see who wins unless it is by learning to choose truth.

I can feel the sadness..
When we fall into the sweetness of certain lies, we can't stop hoping for the lies to become truth and it hurts so bad when we realize that they will never be.. .. Beautiful poem..

The loneliness you speak of is so sad.

If we want to believe we do Simone, how nice to feel that sweet innocence again. Of course you were a lovely girl.

"Beautiful lies" too often are not recognized for what they are, even by the one who utters them.

Sinome
You are one wide awake dreamer that can make me so melancholy with seeing relationships that don't end in togetherness
