You'Re Pc Perfect

You hide, deny, words left implied_
between the lines where you reside_
avoid, misguide, all justified_
You say for love, say you are kind.

~False smiles, false praise...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

~Fake hugs and invites...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

persuade, convince, keep up pretence
stay on the fence, no preference
pretend we're friends to not offend
don't have the heart to end the trend

~False smiles, false praise...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

~Fake hugs and invites...
Say it's the rules...
When did kindness
 become so cruel~

Welcome to Poetry Soup, Taiji. You write for the heart, and the truth. " ~False smiles, false praise... Say it's the rules... When did kindness become so cruel" - so truthful!

This is one of my red flag aspects of our society. Everyone now is afraid of the truth due to being fearful of rebuttals, sensitivities, etc. One must now be Politically Correct or be ostracised. Thanks for bringing this to light.
