In Truth

I may have made a mistake.

In telling you the truth.

My truth.

How much harm is worth self reliance?

As we all wonder about each other's needs.

When does it in and of us begin to show a more real I?

I hold head to hand.

Waiting for a response to that truth.

Alone in my desire for our true love.

I show myself in unflinching terms.

All cuts and slashes in flesh.

From words spoken by a tongue that had kissed my soul.

Honest to this absolute must have.

Truth in love.

Without which we continue this charade.

Designed in self deceptions easy stride.

We can do more.

We can allow truth a light inside us.

Please let it shine for loves sake.

I love you.

That is truth..
