Unfamiliar Flower Poet I do not know?

I Love You

They didn’t like it...
My honest gift.
I guess they didn’t like me,
to accept the truth. 

The expensive truth with all the open wounds,
The expensive truth with all its cruelty, 
The expensive truth with no sympathy,
The expensive truth that had no empathy... 

I couldn’t help it
I saw it in their eyes
They were begging for such a gift
I heard their screaming soul cry for it

I couldn’t help but take notice of it all
Every plead caught my attention 
And so here I am 
Here I stand 
With a gift for you 

I’m sorry for the lies 
Sorry for the other gifts that weren’t real
That weren’t yours 

But here I stand with a gift for you 
You might not like me 
But please like it

This time 
It’s yours and only yours

Freddie Robinson Jr. October 13, 2018 at 10:43 AM Powerful and incisive insight, IF! Truth is a gift that always keeps giving. But, a lot of people shun from accepting it. Such is life, living at the modern. Great poetry. May love light your path in life always.
