oh you’re “brutally honest” but are you ever honest about the good stuff? do you compliment people’s positive traits and behaviors? or do you only open your mouth or fix your fingers to be “honest” when you’ve got something negative on your mind
The small woman builds cages for everyone she knows, while the sage—who has to duck her head when the moon is low—keeps dropping keys all night long for the beautiful, rowdy prisoners.
- Hafez
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take and still somehow
It's love's illusions that I recall
I really don't know love
I really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say, "I love you, " right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
