I can't take it back; I never could.
I hurt people.
I don't mean to, you know..but I do.
Bluntness is terrifying to most, but it has always made me feel safe.
If I scream out the truth about myself and everybody else, then I am protected in a way. No reason to spread rumors.
Just ask me, I'll tell you the truth.
My mom used to ground me all the time for my "big fucking mouth".
But now, I'm a grown up, and although it makes me hated and feared, I say whatever I want, whenever I feel like it, and don't think about the consequences.
Sometimes, I speak before I think. Sometimes, the things I mention turn out to not be true. Usually, I just let it pass. I don't worry about it. I mean, I never meant anything maliciously, right?
A friend, (former friend?) hates me now. Because I said something here in passing, that turned out to not be true. I talked to her about it afterwards, and thought that the misunderstanding had been cleared up, but apparently not. I've tried to call her, and her boyfriend (a real prince) hung up on me. I have tried to IM her, but she doesn't talk back.
I understand my flaws.
I can't keep secrets.
I pass judgement.
I'm outspoken.
But, for all my flaws, I know that I have tremendous strength and loyalty to offer. I never lie. I am always supportive, and if you need someone at 4 in the morning for any reason, I'm always there. I've told the truth, when everybody else has lied. I'm a pillar of strength when the going gets tough.
But, I'm not perfect, and I never will be.
