Truths

Can we speak
                                     our thoughts of truth.
                                 Or are we afraid
                                          to know.

                                   Ask,
                                      and there is nothing
                                     I won't share with you.

                                   You see,
                                       how much time is lost,
                                           bantering words,
                                         and hiding behind 
                                               your feelings.
