I'll be completely honest but not completely true
I'll be true to my heart but not always true to you
some of my words will reflect much of what I feel
while you'll find that other lines are more contrived to conceal
you see a poet can use their words to bear their deepest feeling
but look again and you may see something deeper redder bleeding
read again between the lines of the fresher tender cuts
and you'll brush a slower finger over old wounds long untouched
you may disturb my untold stories seeping through the pages
and find a heart much like yours where an older passion rages
