The person you are an emotional situation as the person you are to the core some people make up things to change the perception of someone else. Telling other’s business is showing your intentions .The true reception of one’s self if is who you are when you want to or feel like your right in a situation. You are double dealing and telling people they are not able to trust you.
If you have a friend that you are very close with and both of you have a falling out over even the pettiest of situations. Females can be highly emotional in those situations. That being said you want comfort and most people just want to hear that they are right. Never being accountable is a bad characteristic to have but is correctable.
Accountability shows that you can reflect and see both sides and look at it from a different perspective. When your in your emotions sometimes you are not able to filter your thoughts. You speak out of anger wanting to hurt or prove the other person wrong. Sometimes people don’t realize the things you say can’t be taken back and those thought you have are actually your true thoughts. Your sentiments should always be spoken about in that moment. Not only when you’re in a high emotional situation. Learn to talk your problems out before things get heated. It may be the thing to keeps those moments from happening.
A truth that’s told with bad intent Beats all the lies you can invent.
Truth can hurt, they try to explain Leaving me lost, and in too much pain.
Betrayed by someone I thought I could trust, But now they’re all ashes turning to dust.
Dead in my mind since the words left your mouth Dead in my heart, all throughout.
“Honesty is the best policy” Honesty leads to inequality.
Wanted to watch me bleed out and cry? You won’t see even a tear from my eye.
You should have lied, Should have only denied.
Now you see what’s become of me Your plan was a nice kick in the knee.
Thank you for nothing, I guess, You’re a terrible person, I must confess.
A barb of truth that’s dipped in spite, Can wound the soul with cruel delight. It pierces deep, a poisoned dart, And leaves a scar upon the heart.
A clever lie, with honeyed tongue, May comfort for a time, though wrong. But better peace, though built on sand, Than truth that's wielded by evil’s hand.
A man full of hate or cold distain Can twist the truth to bring you pain. And a truth that’s told with bad intent, Beats all the lies you can invent.

thoughts on Meta humor? I asked Welp, I’ve got a Rick and Morty tattoo on my ass
My chemistry lab was like the Detroit pistons Only sticky pistons if you know what I mean

…
I didn’t mean to. What? No.
…
Sorry. Do I confuse you?
Sometimes I rant. Hah. Don’t we all?
…
What? No. I didn’t kill her. I did her a favor.
Yeah. What did you think I meant? She’s dead. No. I didn’t do it.
…
I put her in a better place. Out of her misery.
“How did it happen?” Me. Me happened.
•.•.•.
These voices- Louder and louder. They tell me stories. Plans of it all; What I’m capable of. Well. I’m capable of a lot.
Afraid? You should be.
Confused? I want you to be.
Angry? Please baby… …let me show you real anger.
Your crooked truths, with ill design, Malign the lies within your mind.
The broken promise taints the air, Infecting all with none to spare.
This is the premise of demise, your honesty, it always falls to vices.
Your flattery is a wretched blade, a serpent’s kiss, the touch of Hades.
I can’t wait to see the look on your face, When the twicetalk mirage suddenly fades.
If you’d be true for a moment, You’d find your lies are a monument.
This towers sinking right beneath your feet. The truth is right before your eyes, my friend, don’t blink.
Once an ember, I’m now an all engulfing flame Destruction in each and every corner. There is no safety, no comfort, no breath within my reach.
I need you to leave me. I need you to save yourself. Save our child. Save the life we always dreamt.
I need you to leave me. I need to see a smile on your face. I need to hear your laugh again. I need you to feel your heartbeat.
I am your demise. I am your chaos. Your pain. I am the one you bend onto the blade for. You walk barefoot over the coals in an attempt to soothe my implosion. I need you to leave me.
This fireous venom will always be lurking Impeded so far into my veins Wind in the wrong direction Can reignite my inferno
I need you to leave me. Let me drown in the flames Let me be consumed by the hellhounds Let me rest knowing there’s hope for you.
A truth that’s told with bad intent Beats all the lies you can invent.
Hurting others to aid your means Is like cutting fresh cloth at the seams.
Why the need to cause them pain? You’re like wet hair clogging the drain.
The truth is true that can’t be argued But sometimes tongue must be subdued.
Secrets must be locked away Never to see the light of day.
I hope the truth has made you happy For now your trust has gone quite snappy
Your friend will never confide in you For broken trust leaves hearts bruised.
The policy of honesty’s Not best, as far as I can see
Chatter full of little lies Keeps the blinkers on the eyes
Heads that rest deep in the sand To us we may misunderstand
To us it may seem fake, surreal Why not expose the big reveal
But ask yourself why you want to Cast this truth and so impromptu
It doesn’t matter they need to know Though you could move from friend to foe
They need to see the path they are on A path they may or may not remain on
Make their world more realistic Know your act is altruistic
And keep in mind this line of wisdom And know that you can always give some
A truth that’s told with bad intent Beats all the lies you can invent
