Honesty-Allysha Joy

What if we spoke honestly
What if we spoke honestly

Never to twist up tongue again
As I now feel it, fear it unravelling
'neath the fault of habit and distrust
Its all leads to our reckoning
Still softly spoken in acceptance I'm begging

Any excuse in the name of love
You taught me well
My heart bleeds as you hesitate on words and choke
I feel it all, each remark is gathering at my feet
Entangled I know im soon to slip and meet
The truth of past dragged upon me sinks into chest
No need to analyse, examine, cross check
Neath the weight of understanding
I know it all to be false
Now even truth amidst is lost, but
What if we spoke honestly
How might you and I have been

Please never twist up tongue again
As I now feel it fear unravelling
You feel so out of reach now
Are you even listening
To hard to connect in dishonest whisperings
