CANDID

Candid

 

A small simple word

with a meaning pretty deep

Open straightforward frank unvarnished,

no secrets to keep.

 

It’s so serene,

so blissful to be open n free

Sans the ties of lies,

like the wind,

a bird n a tree.

 

But in a world

of crookedness n deceit 

Where everyone is

on a lookout to cheat

You gotta be careful

while being candid,

Lest they take your secrets

and leave you stranded.

 

It’s okay to open up

with friends who care

It’s so liberating to let go

of inhibitions & share

True friends are

a treasure so splendid ,

With whom you can let

your wings down and just go candid!
