One moment I'm bringing up the topic; I'm about to confide my worries, my frets, and suddenly we're talking about how who's celebrity crush is with some dumb girl. And I'm left laughing and putting on this fake smile which I'm shocked everyone can even believe. I must be that good of an actress. Almost as good as all of them.
Lies. I'm surrounded by them. I don't even know who to believe nowadays. Some of them can even smile and laugh with me while they keep feeding me lie after lie after lie. 'Don't worry, I won't ever do that to you', 'Shahira, I'm your best friend. Best friends would never do that to each other!'

Well, if you say so than why are you doing that to me now? How can people just say stuff like that and reassure you and then just stab you behind your back? It's appalling.
And secrets. Ah secrets. Told when someone is at their most vulnerable state to people they truly trust. A trust that comes with a false assurance that it will never be told to a single soul.
"You have to promise me you won't tell anybody!", "I promise, I won't tell anybody. Who would I tell?"
Everybody that's the answer. You would tell anybody and everybody. Well, you know what they say, promises are meant to be broken, and secrets aren't meant to be kept. I've heard a lot of secrets which were meant to be kept and I sit here and wonder "What if I had told them? Would they have kept it like they promised?" and I'm disappointed that the answer that immediately comes to mind is "No. Not in a million years." They'll tell me the secret, the secret they probably swore never to utter again and say "You have to make sure you don't tell anybody! NOBODY IS SUPPOSED TO KNOW." and the cycle goes on and on. Promises made- secrets told- secrets retold to every person they know- promises broken.And some of them wonder why I never tell them anything. There's nothing to tell, yes, but if there were I wouldn't even tell a single soul.
As the saying goes, "Two can keep a secret, if one of them is dead." And I believe that 100%
