The description is your opinion.
This is not another depressing poem

Nor is it a scheme of rhymes
Or a list of crimes with hidden lies
However, we lie to each other, ourselves

Blindly
Delightfully

This is not another depressing poem

Lies are a gift and a curse
They are a source of escape
Unfortunately, never used once for remorse
Sometimes used to sugar coat harsh reality
Or manipulate the common mentality

So sweetly
So maliciously

This is not another depressing poem
