To Tell a Truth

Sometimes the truth is difficult The price thats paid quite dear Its often things quite personal That people don't want to hear Sometimes it hurts to know it And even more to share Because the truth can mend or it can destroy A belief that is already there So when I confess a truth to you I beg you not to walk away Because the hardest thing I'm telling you I hope will make you stay.

Well said Shelley. Truth is a sharp double edged sword. In the right hands (with love) it can heal. In the wrong hands (with malice) it can wound.
