DEAR MAY (LETTERS FROM JUNE)

Day 5 : Speak Your Truth
Cut beneath the surface of melancholy,
Unearth the lies behind your tears.
I don't profess to be known or know.
Truth, I seek truth.
Fan the flames of my desire, 
Speak your truth, 
Without fear or favor. 
Pity
Social studies lectures never really meant anything, 
To the rotting corruption beneath your skin. 
Speak your truth.
Softly, 
Don't ruin the magic. 
We rush into action, active verbs
Become nouns, seeking to be known. 
Shed yourself of your foreskin, 
Bare yourself to me, my lover, 
Let me help you
Look beneath the surface of your desire.
Speak your truth. 
The ebb and flow of a river
is time. 
Who has reasons for their actions? 
Speak your truth. 
What does it cost you?
Friendship
Tell me, what does it cost you? 
Sacrifice your silence for freedom.
Speak your truth.
