For once in your miserable existance
tell me the truth.
I don't want to hear
you lies and half-truths
those far fetched stories
you thought I would buy.
No I'm not stupid
and I'm not gullible either;
what you thought I wouldn't notice?
You seriously would think so little of me?
Please for once
just tell me the truth.
Oh don't give me that rubbish
about me not being able to handle it
you think just becuase I'm female
I'll swoon and faint?
Bah don't make me laugh.
I'm tougher than that.
So just for once in your life
just tell me the damn truth.

Exactly, I want someone to tell me the goddamm truth as well, but it never seems to come out of those who claim to care about me, it's all so very fake half the time and the other half it's pretty much nothing at all. Grrr..

Sadly a lot of people don't tell the truth and it hurts a lot to find out about it. But I'm glad you liked my poem. Hope you have a nice day too.
