Eggshell egos
Why do some take it right to the heart?
if everyone did, we'd all be dead or in jail
at times the truth hits like a tainted dart
honesty is a poison to a mind that's frail
It's kinda cowardly if we spit out some lie
and stuttering out bullshit's utterly useless
those we care for really need an honest reply
white lies are just verbal turds flung at a mess
"I don't care how overly sensitive I might be.....The naked truth is always better than the best dressed lie"
~Ann Landers~
