Honesty IS the best Policy

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Make-believe is for six year olds
And Mr. Roger's Neighborhood
Seeing as how I cannot be called either
Guess it's time to give it up, huh?

time, be honest with me-
all red roses and a daisy garden
Just paint and doodlings
In a long-time dead maze
of thorn bushes and dingery-dodo
Planted some time ago
And decorated with nothings wrong
Deny myself the natural bad
But i used the well quite well
     Ha, pun
When someone got me mad
     Ooo, a rhyme
sincere and caring
But I shouldn't have been all the time
Selfish with jealousy
Screwed myself anyway
Facade of innocent and helpless
Like adding oil to water
Longing to say
That I hate
How you've always gotten your way
and you...just for my pride's sake.
