A Hippy Hymn

There are things I'd rather
burn in hell for than
admit that I have done

'Cept anxiety
is pushing me
towards honesty

That foreign land foreboding
wander it could be loading
peace and love for all eternity.

Hmm, yeah I think that there are those times that we just want to come clean rather than worry ourselves to death over the what-ifs...arrgh don't let me get going on the what-ifs-- and cool you like purple :) & thank you for loving my voice (sorry, I am dense mode, you meant poetic voice? or literal voice as in the voicebox??) I do love the former, the latter hmmm, I love it in my own way, just not sure about other people, haha :D thank you again :D

Honesty is a reflection of reality and lucky for us, we define our own reality. If that's not true, I can't write. See? Tony
