Honest

Beaten, battered, and bruised
I lay here washed up on the shore
Having survived the storm of uncertainty
Raised to the highest heights of ecstasy
Only to be tossed back down by rejection
You stand there without even a drop on you
Guarding yourself by simply saying...
I am only trying to be honest
You cannot be honest with me...
Unless you are first honest with yourself
Every word I spoke to you was true
My actions have proven that without a doubt
The picture you painted me led me into this ocean
You left me there alone, dangling by a thread
Let me weather your inner-struggle
While you tried to decide what was the truth
When you finally stopped to look into your heart
You discovered there was no room for me
Still consumed by the fantasy you created
So you cut the thread without a second thought
Drowning in doubt I look up to see you
Still painting me all these realities you see
But I am stronger then that
I will stand up though you push me down
I know that it is not me that you don't want
You want something only one person can give you
So never feel bad about what has happened
Because you were always honest...right?
