THE BANISHED TRUTHTELLER

Have you ever been too honest? Maybe, said things you shouldn’t have? I have and still do. I can’t help myself. Anyway, what I am trying to say is that sometimes being honest sucks. It changes everything and maybe it isn’t the best policy.

“I spent so many nights thinking how he did me wrong and I grew strong and I learned how to get along~ Gloria Gaynor – I Will Survive

In the end maybe being truthful isn’t such a bad thing. Maybe things happen the way they are supposed to happen. Maybe I am better off than the people who want to say something but keep it hidden, wondering, and forever wishing they could just be honest. I am not very smart so maybe you shouldn’t listen to me; but I am just me and I guess that is all I can continue to be.

I fell in love as I am prone to do

With words that felt like a kiss

Images of white knights

Kneeling before me

Sisters dressed in gowns

Ready to defend me

My own fairy tale blogger world

I was safe and happy and…

But fairy tales don’t hurt like this?
I can name a dozen or more

URL’s in this fantasy domain

People I completely adore

Whom I love forevermore

People who trust me

Who uplift me, who get me

Characters transformed

Into real life friends

Where virtual hugs remain
I fell in love as I am prone to do

A tragedy for someone like me

Someone who feels so deeply

Because I know how I am

I try to remain unchanged

To treat everyone the same

But it is hard because apparently

Right or wrong… I am to blame

A hopeless piece of transparency
