Lie

Written by Jacob Ibrag

I told you that I knew

what I wanted. What if that

was a lie? What if I told you that

I could picture my existence without

your ocean pale eyes? Would you

still stand by me while I tried

to figure out my life?

    My God I love this! So deliciously short and poignant. And every single time, you pair your work with such amazing visual art too. So consistent!

    Yes, nice ponderance.

    What happened? I read this blog an hour ago and now it appears again, with the original amount of likes and comments. How does this work? Is it possible to reblog your own work without “rebloggging”?

    To wait for the true love an do believe that if it belongs to you, it will come back is the essence of love.
    So I guess he/she will wait if it means so much.

    Beautiful poetry, I am in that path of figuring out my life but those close to me seem not to understand me, they simply can’t understand what is there to be discovered when you can just follow the norm. But I believe each one of us has a purpose in this life and we only get to realize full happiness and fulfillment in life when we get to know ourselves better and discover our passions. Your poetry is indeed inspirational
