Told you once..

Roxanne~ The Police

What a legend of a song, right?

I am always accused for being too honest with others about myself…..

And that I should have a red light that needs to go off every time I utter something outrageous about myself….

“Dont sell yourself short” those are the words I have heard a million times over…

“you don’t care if it’s wrong or if it’s right”

Many a times that red light’s does go off in my head….

Asking me to stop making myself  look ridiculous and scare strangers off…..and I have stopped from making the Oh most obvious mistakes….but why should I?

Are my thoughts to be screened and words less explicit?

Is being opinionated a curse of the post modern woman of my generation?

Does it come with the territory?

Or should I replace the mental make up with a more superficial one?

“I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn’t talk down to you
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won’t share you with another boy
I know my mind is made up
so put away your makeup
told you once I won’t tell you again
it’s a bad way”
