The truth hurts

I realize you hate me now.
Took a risk, considered it, decided.
You must be confused right now.
I've been very confrontational, I know that, and yet I laugh.

For the first time, someone stood in front of you, telling the truth you deserve.
Although it's not easy, so hard, to say, I'll admit.
Cuts deeper than 1000 razor blades.
Can be devastating. Yes, I know....
You hate me, and that's okay.

Better you hate me for being honest,
 than that I'm yet another person around you,
who will never be your real friend,
who doesn't know it's definition.

I really love you, one day I hope you'll realize.
So just hate me now, it's okay.
You'll come back to me.
I'll wait for you,
like a true friend would do.

One day....

Author's Note
Ever had to tell someone the hard truth? Most don't... cause they know it will hurt the other. What's the choice you make, walk away or do you tell the truth? No matter how much it hurts the other...Are you even a real friend when you don't? Thoughts....
