***Once again, another story I wrote that I loved. I like this one better than the other. Its quite short, but gets my point across.***
Lies. That is all there is now.
Lies. Are the only thing that holds us together.
And the sad thing is....I don't mind.

We live in an age when all there is---is deciet. We thrive off of deception and fabrication. Look at our role models: a little nip here, a little tuck there. Then there is our media; who has been false since the start. Then finally are those little white lies. They aren't supposed to hurt anyone, right? No. Maybe not then. But later it will.
So of course, with lies seeping into every crevice and mind of our culture; why not have relationships built on lies? Well, we weren't built on lies. In fact, we tried to start out completely honest. That wasn't hard. You were handsome, I was beautiful. You were the track star. I was Volleyball team captain and Class President. We were perfect, All-American kids. On the right track and so in love.
Ha, I was in love with your influence over the students; you were in love with the thought of having the most wanted girl in school. Absolutely perfect for each other. My need for influence and power matched your need for having the best there is over everybody else.
Of course we were honest.
I'd make out with you and kiss you in front of your friends; you would help me win votes. Perhaps this should bother me. But honsety in our deception is too good. It makes too much sense not to lie. The distance between us isn't too far with our bridges made of falcity.
So smile for me, help me win hearts. And I'll kiss your lips and help you be the envy.
