"What if...I told the real truth?"


She said to me "You can tell me anything"

and now I wonder "What if...what if I did?"

What if I took a chance to tell her anything.

Things that are really going on under the 

facade of the things that I'd prefer to say. 

like the common "I'm okay or it's okay"

I'm ight...

but, Why does no one put up a fight to challenge

me on that fact?
