I am a Liar

By TornPieces

Alone we are, father.
Father forgive me for I have sinned

Father forgive me for I have lied to all my companions
Telling them that I eat chicken breast for dinner
I dance to music with my family
We laugh together and cry together

When the truth is, I sleep with my back bent.

Or rather than sleep, I think of new lies to tell

Truth is father, I have blue circles on my neck, from my "dances" with father.

Truth is father, I have children in my mind, who take my place at school

Truth is, I am the mothers accomplice, in her witchcraft.

Father forgive me for I have lied to all my companions
And so familiar I am with sins and lies,
that I do not trust God will forgive me without punishing me for my tongue.

Tell me the truth Father, I and all the people in the mind...
will we perish in hell?

I totally understand this. And certainly God will too. I don't know but it seems a still fresh situation, it seems you talk about the present and not something far in the past

Lying to hide the hurt, the crime, the shame, and even perhaps further abuse. Seriously sobering, thanks.
