shed thoughts

she was honest

they asked her if she's okay
she shook her head
and answered the truth.
they didn't believe her for saying no,
demanded that she's just doing it for show.
they called her pathetic
a liar and a narcissist.
she pressed her lips in a thin line,
from that day on, she learned to lie
saying everything is fine.

— she was honest about everything
but not anymore.
