telling a lie

it's like someone telling you,

"go on, throw out the line, it will catch on a fish"

and you hesitate at first but that someone convinces you to do it.
that someone gave you the something to look forward to. hope. faith. belief.

and you throw out the line.

for what???

to find out it catches on to nothing that seemed and felt like something in the beginning.

how would you feel?

je préfère ne rien dire.
