Tell your lies or

You can tell your truth.

It’s how you want to see yourself through your own eyes.

Because you live with the lies and truths, you tell every moment you breathe and experience life.

I can’t tell you to just give me your doubts and flaws because you don’t want them, but you don’t want me to know them, either.

So, we are at a standstill as you want to be true to yourself but not truly let it all out for you fear that would be too much.

For being vulnerable is hard, and it’s easier to get stabbed in the back when your friend or enemy has facts about you.

But you trust me, and I trust you and if we keep the truth and accept the doubts and flaws, then resentment will never form.
