I will not say,
What you want to hear
I learned a decade ago
The more we lie to others,
And even more ourselves,
The less we will know joy or peace.
Let honesty speak to the spark within,
If you feel rage, let it smolder.
The pain will propel you,
But my lies would kill you.
And though the choice is not pleasant.
The important ones should never be.
I am a writer with an extremely active imagination. I love learning answers to questions and what makes everything and everyone tick. I am a "Unique case, medically" if nothing else.

I like people whose default setting toward others is compassion, an open mind, and honesty View more posts
