I guess some can't handle the truth.

I guess some can't handle the truth.



I’ve heard some say

I’ve hurt their feelings

With some of the things I’ve

Said to them. Here’s what I don’t

Understand. If I said something to hurt

Them real bad why can’t they remember

What I said if it was so hurtful? I know if

Somebody says something to hurt me I’ll forgive

Them but I’ll never forget. I’m sorry I can’t lie to

Nobody I was raised that way. I’ve tried lying

To spare others feelings but I can’t do it.

So my advice is if you don’t want the truth

Always no matter what DON’T ASK ME! The way I see it  you can hurt somebody just as much telling the

Truth as you can telling a lie. It hurts worse if you

Tell somebody a lie and they find out the truth later.

I really like this poem. It's so true and understandable.
