Truth Be Told

Truth be told There's more right in their wrongs than you or I  could conceive They've stood by each other when everyone else would've fled. Truth be told, they have a fight in their love that would leave  others battered and bruised They're hysterically funny arguing over good news She started off asking why he had to find the leaky pipe  "today of all days" His reply: he wanted to. She fusses again and he goes in on her maiden name. Daily driving each other to the limits of the Be Attitudes Truth be told, Most women wouldn't fix his plate after he had sabotaged her grits but she does.. He argued about painting the bathroom a darker color, she shut him up with "I thought a woman's house was her home but I guess not" He fussed under his breath but bought the color she wanted. She touches him fondly He provides for her faithfully Truth be told, You don't see this commitment often, however, keep looking there's plenty of people that'll drive you crazy, but only one insane enough to stick with you Truth be told. Dedicated to my grandparents Papa and Bami.
