It's interesting how people say
"the ugly truth."
Is the truth ugly?
I don't think so.
Lies are ugly.
Lies cause pain.
Lies cause bad decisions.
Lies cause death.

Truths may be hard to handle,
but I would much rather hear
a hard truth
than an
easy lie.

I want to know your
Opinion,
that's why I'm asking.
I may be hurt,
but I would rather
hear it from you,
my friend,
than have myself exposed
stupidly
in front of hundreds.

"Does this make me look fat?"
Don't say no.
I'm a big girl.
If  you see my belly button,
The answer is yes.

"Does this poem sound stupid?"
Well,
Does it?
