Be yourself from the get go and worry not if some don't approve .Thats their prob :) [bodytext] => Like paint that peels from a touched up place
Brushed on with deceit,to cover,save face
So too can some words,hide the ugly within
Pretty it up,though the layers are thin

But over time it will slide,words will just fade
Like paint on a wall,slowly peeling away
So too will the charms,so too will the smiles
Not mine for my brush has been true all the while

With pride I stand tall,I can paint what I feel
Without worrying my words will fade and peel
For I need not understanding,not nearly enough
To compromise truth,with a deceitful brush [comments] => 3 [counter] => 212 [topic] => 19 [informant] => LovingWhispers [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )

I could never figure out why people lie and deceive, when it all comes crashing in their face when the TRUTH is revealed. It's as if they are buying time. Little do they know...time has no price! This poem portrays the TRUTH of the matter!!! Excellent!
