A Lie by T. Alisha Rogers

When I say I am fine, 

I lie. 

The inner voice compels secrecy.
When I speak of moments
To assure contentment, 
I lie 

Turmoil ensues, hurt holds true.
As external events occur, I arise 
Meet the challenge, 
Exceed the challenge, 
I lie. 

When I give in to hope, 
I lie 

Sensing the need to be loved
The desire to offer all I am, 
All I have, to be, 
I lie. 

Deserving all I dream,
Is a lie.

Wanting all I dream 
Is a lie 

My comfort 
Is a lie 


The peace of my spirit 
Is a lie.
