This world is
a sombre trove
of untold truths;

cheerful lies.

And perhaps the person behind the lies too. As why fo they need to lie? ?

Because truth is always sombre. Lies bring cheer, albeit short-lived

How we live is our choice. Most importantly, we need to avoid stepping on others' toes. And clearly understand that our freedom ends at the tip another person's nose. Thank Dillipji
