Try once to be Honest with Yourself & don't Lie Eye Can Never Lie



• Believe me to always lying never means you are brave
• To lie and not being true, only to hell it will take you
• To Relieve yourself from this guilt, try to be honest
• Don't deny you are wrong & correct your mistake
• Your fear leave it & don't die in that dark grave
• Buy yourself & to not ever lose it, be right & honest
• Your lying if you believe it, means you'll be its slave
• Rely on truth, or your whole life will be so fake
• How you can achieve respect if you are not honest
• Or even sigh quietly, when deceit is what you crave
• If you receive suspect from your lying without brake
• So why you still insist to lie & lie despite being  honest

• Be Honest.. Don't ride the bad wave
• To be Honest.. It's for your own sake

    Wow! This poem is truly inspiring and strikes a chord with everyone who reads it. The message about the importance of honesty and being true to yourself is incredibly powerful. I especially love the line "To Relieve yourself from this guilt, try to be honest" - it's a great reminder that honesty can be so liberating.

    One suggestion for improvement might be to play around with the formatting a bit - perhaps breaking the poem up into separate stanzas could help emphasize certain lines or create a stronger visual impact. But overall, this piece is fantastic and I think it would be great to share with anyone struggling to be honest or true to themselves. Keep up the great work!
