I Won't Mind Tell A Lie Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Very strong meanings here 'Disturbing pains inside a truth' My own thoughts see a young kid in a cinema and a man in the next seat acosts the boy and it seals inside him...he cannot tell his mum beside him, , , , , also a thousand boys in the church same thing...I won't mind tell a lie....++++10 thanks regards

A tight and edgy piece to ponder on, Kesav..Thanks for sharing your poetry. With best wishes, Yelena

A rather disturbing write Kesav - which leaves the reader with a heap of unanswered questions....

Abstract canvas with red stokes of lies and green strokes of truth…but in white paint on white paper ‘Pain’ speaking much… congrats for sharing Sir Ms. Nivedita UK 10/10 hf

white lies call they, but prudence is neccessary to know when to stop

I will join you tell a thousand lies to help save some souls. Wisdom is what this contains. Continue!

you have captured the fight..the tussle going on within so very well...i agree hope can be save inside without a pain

Lies, pain, hope- you have with great dexterity captured human condition. we try to cope with pain by hoping tomorrow will be a better day. that too is a lie we tell ourselves for its too difficult to handle prolonged pain. your last two lines give away your thought very poignantly as well as stoically. a clever play on words, Kesav. hope and lies belong together. quite an existential theme.i take it to my fav to ponder over... 10 Mamta

I think most of us are of this kind only...'smiling face with heavy heart' very well penned....thank you
