Euphemism

I know you'd never lie to me,
So I ask you a favour,
I riddle you one question.
What comes first;
Truth or feelings?
You seem to think it's the latter.
Hold your tongue and no one gets hurt.
You try to be nice,
Make me feel like I hold a candle to you,
Yet all I can do is laugh it off.
But I have to look the other way,
Bite back the tears.
I can see straight through your sugar-coated lies.
Because let's be real,
Who would want me anyway?
A/N: I'm not really sure what to say about this poem. I'm just amazed at the fact that I managed to write it in five minutes! Can someone please explain how that happened? Although I guess it's pretty easy when the inspiration is right in front of you. I hope you liked it, and please vote and/or comment. Thanks for reading, fellow wattpadians!
