"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.

Dearest sweet valsa! I always am pleased to see you post! And this is so very well written too. I love the flow and depth of what you’ve conveyed. What i gathered from your truths is a humble soul, you are, with lines such as “I am neither a genius nor a prodigy or mastermind, an ordinary woman who can love” i dot know about that but i see you as extraordinary, with how you spread magic of love and kindness wherever you are, poetically and more, its only a special soul that can admit to their mistakes accept them and keep on hoping to do better, as we are all human we do make mistakes sometimes! You definitely are one of those rare gems! Sending you light always. Best wishes for the contest
