Honestly

Total Honesty
Is Impossible To
Communicate
Due To The
Innate Ambiguity
Of Language...

Uhhh... At Least.

Whatever.
Even If It Bothers You.
Even If You Try.

Honestly Love

I gave you the opportunity, I took the chance,
To open up my heart to you again,
This time I didn't hold back my words,
I even shared some things with you that no one has ever heard,
And again your ego and image means more,
You have only proven to me what I felt from before,
I'm not angry.... far

The truth is a book
But you have to read it
You can own a book, but if you never read it
You will never know what it is

You may guess at some of the truth
Others will have found a different path to part of the truth
No-one is actually wrong, they just cannot
Or will not, see all of

Honestly Speaking
Familiar faces turn their backs 
They come and go for unknown
Reasons throughout the seasons.

Plans, Let's wait for time for

Premium MemberHonestly Speaking

Honestly Speaking 
Frankly speaking one's candor
Has put me in some uncomfortable 
Situations. Honestly Speaking 

For instance, correcting someone of
The spelling of my name. Honestly Speaking 

I often address my feelings of confusion, 
Tension,  chaos. Honestly Speaking 

Often feel discounted, taken advantage of, 
And not appreciated. Honestly Speaking 

I'm not an attention-seeker nor do I

Honestly The Sad

**Honestly The Sad**


He wished to play with friends,
But his mom's rules set tight ends.
The fence knob was too high,
Beyond his reach, he would try.

Then he wished to grow tall,
And with time, he did stand tall.
He could now reach the knob,
Unlocking it, no longer a sob.
Praise God, the fence did fall.

Now he wished to help his

Honestly

Honestly.      
I'm dealing with a lot of things that bother me.
I'm fiending at the weekends, just to break up the monotony.
There's gotta be..
A better way to deal, so what you got for me? 
A lot of steps to take so I can make it as a prodigy. 

Its hard to

Honestly mom, it's fine

Dad either way always says: ,,Crying brings you nothing" 
So why do you cry mom?
To show me you are sorry? 
That I still don't know how to close my shoelaces and how to read fluently? 
When you cry mom, 
you make my bathtub full of foam.
I hate foam mom, it doesn't bring warmth.
The little bubbles

If I were to choose 'tween you or 'tween me 
To hit the jackpot in the lottery 
I would choose it be you 
Or someone that you knew 
To lose "Suckers" "Cause I'd want it to be me

Honestly I Wont Like It

Could it your fancy tickle:
The fluid you need does trickle;
Legs once free like vehicles
On Stopped Feet of Manacles?

Won’t it up get one’s hackles
That one often tasks tackles
Others’ Wrists not in shackles
For what one down to buckles?

You others tag ‘The Fickle’
Fit only for the sickle;
Expo sure to ridicule:
Lots of  in Article
That you know “Just Bicycle”
Swearing

Honestly

7/5/22


Can it be done? Possibly
Will I do it underneath the moon and sun? Probably
Honestly
It all use to bother me
I was born in it, but I don't want to die in poverty
For a long time I was doing it improperly
Living constantly
In monotony

Some inside and out hard as a rock others fragile like pottery
Many shopping designer or

Honestly In Love

hey you
we have 
no more expectations
and nothing to lose
surely
we fight 
when we have the blues
to be 
honestly in love
and
we both need 
more communication
to answer every question
to be in love with your best friend
