Honesty

I'm sorry I do things to make you mad
But sometimes you do things to make me sad

Maybe we're trying too hard not to hurt one another
We need to be honest if we want to go any further

Let's share our feelings like we share our love
We can always draw on strength from above

We've come too far to mess things up
We need to remember why we fell in love

Our feelings are important and sometimes get hurt
We must talk things out, that is for sure

No secrets, no lies or before we know it
Too much time will pass by and we may forget

Bad things could happen and life could get rough
We may even find that we fall out of love

Nicely written. Communication is what a true relationship needs but sometimes one cannot share feeling and needs with another person because they use it as a weapon. Sara
