What happened to truth? Did it go out of style?

Kind of a Story. 
I was born in 2001 as a second child to my parents and soon named Alveera which means the speaker of truth and so ‘truth’ has been very significant in my life. I came to this world not knowing what made it and yet I do not know. As a kid I was taught- Lying is a sin. The story of Pinocchio was repeated several times so much so that I remember each and every tiniest event of that story- beginning from his birth to the time when his nose grew and grew because of his lies.
Lies- I never lied after being told not to. I was that girl who was very little exposed to the true world.
But when I met the truth everything changed.when I met the truth I started to lie. I realized that these rules were meant to be broken. Everyone lied and they said it was cool to lie. Well, let’s admit it I tried it too. Just took a little on my finger then on my tongue and oh! It was delicious and luckily a lot easier to make too. So I started to eat everything coated with lies- pasta with lie sauce and Lie Pie. Just to break the monotony I drank true tea sometimes but that didn’t completely take away the taste I had developed for lies.
When I grew older I felt that lying wasn’t cool anymore, I stopped it, moving along with the trend. That was the time I came to the conclusion that I will never lie even if it anyone else did.But just then I realized I was addicted to lies. I knew that 1 lie meant 5 more and 5 more meant 20 more….and so on. But I couldn’t stop it. It was far more than impossible. Even the ones who taught me that only fools lie were lying now. I thought that we’ll all stop this but we couldn’t because the truth “that we were lying all this time” was too bitter for us to accept it. And If one cant accept the truth how will they speak it?!.But I could. Because I found an exit to this artificial maze. Just by saying “I am a liar’ I became a truthful human.
So here I am carrying the same meaning of my life and my name- truth.
And no- no truth isn’t out of style
it can never be
because all of us at all times
carry a truthful being
along with us
till where our eyes see
