Sometimes in life we are selfish. Sometimes we are cruel to others. We don't know what they are going through or anything about them and we should stop, put ourselves in their position and just think!

this poem inspires me to say what i feel but not what i think. what i think may not be real but what i feel is real and its the only thing getting in the way of me and my friends.

Perfect Ten, Gurlee. We all have to watch what we say, I agree. I always heard the saying, "Be kind, for everyone you meet fights a harder battle. " You're right; we just don't know where people are coming from, where they're going, or what. This really speaks to me. You've really made me stop and "Think. " (:
Linda
This poem makes so much sense. I loved it.
Ida
after reading it, i realise that it does happen to me at times when i tell the truth to someone i love and eventhough it says that telling the truth might hurt and it can be for the better. find a suitable time to tell. be in the person's shoe and know wat he's going through at the moment. this way, you show them that u care and don't want to hurt them.
lisa
i really really liked this poem it like spoke to me and stuff
Leah
I'm one of those people with "brutal honesty" this poem is about me. I guess it's about time I realize not everyone is as strong as I am. I have hurt people, sometimes badly by simply stating an obvious truth. this is a very good thought provoking poem.
Adrianna

i do agree with you not al the time we need to say everything. but at times we should say nothing.
Jules
I love this poem because it made me realize that I need to think before I do things or say things about people. You've made me realize that I don't need everyone to know everything about me. I need to think about what I tell people.
Jessica
Wow. this poem tuched me, it made me really think, that well maybe i am hurting. I was always told by my friends don't keep anything inside, let it all out. tell us what you really think, but i never thought, that was only mean to be true when asked. I usually always just said what was on my mind, never thought twice. I never realized how many people i could of been hurting over the years. so thanks
