To Err Is Human

If you love why would you lie why would you cheat why would you betray why would you go astray Is it for love that you lie To you preserve the life that is To retain calm To maintain peace To overcome the guilt the feel the passion the love To bring back the family the friend the memories the togetherness But to maintain this calm You have to lie You have to compromise You have to live with guilt You have to let go your true love You have to swallow the bitter pill Forever remain Afraid that you could be caught Afraid that you could be abandoned Afraid that you could be looked down upon Afraid that you could never be trusted by anyone Afraid that you could have to let go of everything Be honest You will retain your honesty You will retain your dignity You will retain your love You will retain your sleep You will retain your relation You will retain your feelings You will retain your kids As Alexander Pope said "To err is Human..."
