Sugarcoated

People choose comforting lies

Over constructive criticism.

People choose to fit in

When they were born to stand out.

People make the most cutting remarks,

Back-stabbing actions,

And brutal condemnation

Seem perfectly harmless.

Our world that is falling apart

Is covered up to seem innocent and pure.

People need to learn to

Recognize their mistakes,

Be respectful to other people,

And be the kind of person they want to meet.

Stop sugarcoating the truth

And live a life that supports other people.
