This is a very interesting poem, I like that you've incorporate reality with getting dress. Honestly many people rather be lie to, than have the true told to them. I think that people find the truth boring, but I find it to be assuring because it makes me undress the lie that I or someone is telling and face reality. I hope this comment makes sense, I really like this poem.

I don't think I will count the syllables this time, I think you are pretty good at doing that.

In my opinion, I agree with the content. What it is sad about a lie, isn't the lying per se. It is that we cannot longer trust someone the same way.

I also liked the ending. Reality barely gets dressed. I mean that's the way I understood it. And Lies become overrated because they are dressed so much that it's hard to see the truth.

Well done.

A lie can wander
so fast all around the world
while reality
seems so boring, coming
slow and hardly getting dressed..

So true..khalid.

Very thought provoking. i felt a kind of depth in the last couple lines

"seems so boring, coming
slow and hardly getting dressed.."

and it really made me think about the aptness of that metaphor; somehow it just seems... correct though i cant really think of any other way to state it.

over all a very short, very powerful piece about the dangers of lying, especially to those you lie about. a lie can be a low acting poison that will tear people apart - even long after the lie has become irrelevant.

Awh this one is really wow!! it made me want to cry since i'm not the saint others would love me to be i can say i tell the truth but in reality i don't at times i LOVE the first stanza cause thta's the one that my heart bleed to read it really got the my heart going! and it's true what a lie can do to any relationship...5/5

An unbelievably true write, Khalid! Lies aren't worth the trust that could be forever broken. Truth is always the key to any relationship to thrive.

I love the ending line, it's unique and really stands out.

So true .. It's not the lie its the consequences that follow that break the bond

Oooh thats so true, after a lie its difficult to trust that person the same way, and also sometimes we'll see them differently.
Love this piece:)
