The biggest lie I ever told was to myself. My pride, maybe arrogance, failed me. I could never have been this misguided, I thought. I was blind. We played each other for so long and I always knew he was better at it, but I thought I had the upper hand in this. Maybe I had, if I'd let myself see everything for what it really was.
The biggest lie I ever told was broken one cold day in Bordeaux when I looked into his eyes. At the same time something was broken in him too, but I didn't have time to wonder. When lies are uncovered they shake our world; even if they were ones we told ourselves.
