J M. Basey - Being Honest

I’m here writing
My feelings onto this page
To some of you
It may cause outrage

It doesn’t bother us
How you’re feeling
Why do you like to share?
Cos to be honest
We don’t really care

What’s the point?
Listening to your struggles and strife
We’ve all got problems
So just get on with your sad life

Just stop and think
Before you let all of us know
Cos reading your stuff
Might make us feel really low

I’m so sorry
If this is how you feel
Apologies if my poetry
Makes you all sad
That isn’t my deal

I just like to write my feelings down
When I’m feeling blue
It helps me to overcome my problems
At the end of the day
I just want to be honest with all of you

Thanks for letting me know
That you don’t care
It’s made me stop and think twice
About writing to share

I’m so sorry
If this is how you feel
Apologies if my poetry
Makes you all sad
That isn’t my deal

I just like to write my feelings down
When I’m feeling blue
It helps me to overcome my problems
At the end of the day
I just want to be honest with all of you
