Naked Truth

Naked Truth 

I am afraid
to undress the truth
because there are elders
they are strict
so I cannot tell
a naked truth
I better clothe my story
with lies all over
to avoid problems
so I may be safe.

Wow Drencho, we must be careful with too much revealing of ourselves. My demons became my friends long ago.

Naked truth is problematic sometimes. Indeed Carlos Trevino. :)
