honesty and falsehoods

I wouldn't take it so harshly,
if I just took the time to compare,
being so easily forgettable isn't quite the desparate state I envision,
once placed next to a painful memory.

but you'll remember,
when the temperature was warmer,
and we didn't need these extra layers,
how sheltered it felt.

I've always found it difficult,
to disregard my clever analogies,
for real comparisons,
because they've always felt a little to genuine.

Honesty made me a hero,
and falsehoods made me believe that.
