the truth


i told a lie
i felt so bad about it
that i followed it up with another lie

i don't know if i'm more concerned by the lie or the fact i'm upset about the lie
the thing is...
i always lie
constantly
which is really funny as i'm one of the most brutally honest people i know
people rely on my honest opinion
a lot of times i use the honesty to mask the lie that follows

this time i lied about where i was and who i was with
i wasn't trying to hide anything or cover my tracks
i lied and made up the tracks.
a winding weaving track of storytelling
where i was very vague with facts and figures
to make it seem like i was covering something

i did it so you'd make that face
the expression that you're absolutely useless at covering
and i know you won't call me up on it
because there's no way you'd want to know the details
the details would hurt you
so i won't bother making them up

so in the spirit of honesty
i actually went straight home from your house the other night
it didn't take two hours
and i didn't stop at anyones on the way

i also never kissed anyone on saturday night
but the expression on your face
made me feel like i did.
i wish i had
kissed someone on saturday
but i was out with Miss H...

i feel crappy i lied
i'm sorry
not crappy enough that i'd tell you
or let you read my blog
especially after that other post

i'm sorry
no lie
