My words have a way of coming right out.
They go straight to the point, without even
a shout.
It seems to be the only way I know how, to
communicate at all now.
Well I guess that's as it should be.
It's one of the ways that I protect me.
Some don't like what I say, or maybe it's
just the way.
I suppose that I really could change, but how
I feel would remain.
At least you'll always know this about me.
I am what I am, that's all I can be.
You may not like what I say, but most likely
you will hear it anyway.
I say things like they are.
Blunt, and straight to it, sometimes going
too far.
Author notes
I really think this is the best way for me to be. I can't take lies, any truth to me is the better.
I do sometimes forget that not everyone really wants to hear the truth, even though they ask for it. Try it, you'll see what I mean. The next time someone asks how are you? Answer with, today has just sucked completely. Sometimes they even answer, that's nice. I do like to challenge.
Please tell me what you think

Based on my previous comments today, people are going to think I have a problem with rhyming poems, but I really don't. I think people just underestimate how difficult it is to have it sound really smooth and effective.
That said,I love your first line. I immediately wanted to read more. I also liked "They go straight to the point," but the rest of that line just felt shoved in and unnecessary.
"I suppose that I could change, but how I feel would remain." I like that line.

Much Respect for you
You sound much like me. I don't like to sugar coat things and love the truth over a lie any day. I am used to being around liars and that does make things harsh when it comes to me and the truth. I never call anyone out on something unless I see it. The truth is not taken well most times but I do use as much tact as I can.
You are right about your notes, not everyone wants to hear the truth but its best for them if they do.
This is a great write.

Thank you,
actually I come across harsh to others. I'm not trying to be, it's just I really can't stand lying. I think that is the worst thing anyone can do to me. Trying to protect someone with a lie only makes it a double insult. It's kind of strange really, you could steal from me, and I would be more upset that when I asked you, if you lied to me about it, than that you did it. Connie
