THE LITTLE LIES WE TELL

I had no idea the lies I told would one day come back to hunt me. I didn't really consider it a lie, because there was actually an iota of truth in it but it just wasn't the whole truth, it was perfectly coated to suite the situation.

I didn't mean to hurt her, I just wanted to get out of the messy situation I was in and I had to drag her into the whole picture. It felt easy, all I had to do was make her feel sorry for me and it was it, after all she's just like every other girl.

She, I thought would just be a means to salvage myself, I was stupid, and even naive. I let my greed get the better of me, I'm hopeless, even the devil would be impressed with me. He'll look at me and smile, " this is truly my son", he'll see me fit to take over his legacies. The true son of lies himself. He'll crown me with a crown of lying tongues, tongues sharp enough to cut through flesh.

But all this happened before I really got to know her. She's not just like any other girl, she's beautiful on the inside, amazing, caring and has the best personality ever. When I'm around her I lose control of myself, I can't help it. I've seen how bright she is and she's still willing to help me regardless of who I am and who I have become. She showed me all of her, let me in and gave me protection.

I'm not worthy to receive any sympathy, I deserve no place in her heart.

I'm sorry, I really messed up and I know there's no way to fix back this broken trust, I'll just let you follow your heart and I'll just leave you with this. I'll walk out of your life and never come back, all ties broken, like you never met a fair, slim guy like me. You'll go back to your amazing life and keep using your kindness to change other people's lives. I'll leave, walk out of the POB, leave the Hive and you'll never have to see me again or anything I write, I'll be dead to you, erased forever.

I just hope she'll forgive me, that's the only thing I can hope for so I'll be able to forgive myself.

Goodbye
Your's sincerely
Chinco

@chincoculbert , nothing is ever that bad that it is unsalvageable. If indeed you have lost something precious, I am sincerely sorry for you. I hope you can pick yourself up and learn from any mistakes that were made and that she realises the genuineness of your apology. Please don't leave POB and Hive. You were just getting started. And if this is simply a fictional piece then you had me going...but it feels too emotionally invested to be fictional. So I hope things work out for you. Go easy on yourself.

I really messed up. I pray I'll be able to salvage myself again.

And about living the Hive, I don't know if I'll have the courage to stay here knowing she brought me here and I did that.

I'll just need time away to reflect.

Thank you for your concern dear. I'll miss you if I end up leaving

Don’t know what happened but all situations can serve to help us become better. It’s good to learn from your mistakes but don’t let them hold you down forever. You don’t have to treat anyone like that again. And also her existence means there are good people out there. Maybe Give it some time and give her a true apology without expectations. At least then there will be no bad blood

Lies are never good no matter how small it is lies are something that keeps hunting us even in the nearest future ,it can cause a separation between friends ,lies can end relationships, it can even end a marriage, according to lucky dube he said the lies we tell today may hunt us tomorrow which is absolutely true.

You're perfectly right.
Lies are really harmful in our every day lives so we'll have to avoid them.

Thanks for taking time to drop a meaningful comment
