"I feel truth is relatively subjective. My truth need not be your truth. When I hold onto what I believe is truthful, I am honest though another may suspect the verity of my truth"~ By Poet
I am a rough stone rugged,
misshapen and unhewn, hard, asymmetrical, raw and jagged.
If chopped and cut fine, can become a sculpted marvel.
I am neither a genius nor a prodigy or mastermind,
an ordinary woman who can love
and forgive, never letting dark deceit show its ugly head.
Always wishing not to let the truth crumble before lies.
As I try to show a little piece of myself,
I must admit, I have said small lies,
that I couched in honesty's guise.
Now I have earned wisdom to amend my lopsided vision,
to see my faults and rectify them by all means;
leave every pretense and be honest
admit mistakes, feel genuinely sorry and never repeat.
