If I Told You the Truth, I'D Have You In Tears

So sad, they seem, the reasons I hide
The Truth that's left unrevealed
A thousand times my tongue has lied-
In attempt to keep it all concealed

Chan The Man So much truth in so few words. I don't think you could ever lie. Well I hope you don't especially to me or I would be very sad. LOL Nice job with getting the reader to feel what is in your heart. Thanks for the fun and amazing comment on my Computerized People poem. Hugs and Love

Thank you, Barbara; I'm also a big fan of short pieces. I'm not quite sure I've "mastered" it lol (but thank you for the confidence-boosting compliment), but I think I do have a pretty firm grasp. Thank you for stopping by and giving my little ditty a read and response; I appreciate the kind words :)
