Step Aside

Though tempted to give sound advice,
to share my view, I must think twice.

Some people ask for the plain truth,
yet choose a mask while holding proof.

Honest viewpoints could shake their core,
alter their hoist as hopes deplore.

Try hard to help prevent a fall.
Stay in my realm until they call.

Grasp self control to bite my tongue,
but still console tears that are sprung.

A silent vow to not provide,
they will learn how to let soul guide.

  1. β€œSome people ask for the plain truth,
    yet choose a mask while holding proof.”- So true, Grace! Sometimes people hold expectations for the truth to be favourable all the time.

  2. this is so profound and true Grace. It’s not always easy …

    “Grasp self control to bite my tongue,
    but still console tears that are sprung.”
