Honest

Honest Be honest with your feelings They should not be neglected If you deny truth to yourself Won’t your spirit be affected? Be real, do not put up a front Pride should not be a factor Neither should shame, not even fear Let virtue be your inspector Find out what’s keeping you awake Confront that what is haunting Intimidation gains more strength When things are viewed as daunting Find strength within, don’t buckle down The war is in your head Why listen to what tears you down? Think positive instead! The things that make us strong and bold Should be self-cultivated Why do you still allow yourself To be underestimated? Be kind, be patient, show more love To the person that you are A little understanding Will get you very far Be honest therefore, to yourself Not just to everyone else Don’t listen to your inner self When only lies it tells The way you feel, the way you think The things you say and do View them as recognition of The person that is you.
