A contemplation on the destructive nature of lies and deception in relationships.
The lie

They say that there are white lies.

For me, no lie is white.

A lie is an act of contempt.

Which damages what has been built.

The protagonist of pain, harm, disgust, and contempt

Are you a lie?

Could you be that pain?

That harm?

That disgust?

That contempt?

Which human beings detest but do not stop doing.

Is that you?

My big doubt?
