Ugly truth

Because at least it is truth. Why live with the wonder and the emptiness of some twisted beauty in a lie, only for it to come crashing down, as all lies do? I'd rather know straight up front the truth, because not only am I searching for it, this way I have clear vision and can rise from a tragity instead of wasting my time with a lie. As tempting as a tailored lie is. I'd still rather have the real thing and not waste my strength chasing something I know deep down I can't have, something that will tear me apart because it's not ultimately what I want.

Thank you for this challenge, thank you for being you.
