Midnight thoughts

If you can't be at your most honest and truest even in front of your closest, then what gives? 

Words. Depends on how you use them. They can be a salve but they can also cut you deep. Different words can still convey the same meaning and deliver the same intent. 

It's late. Unsettled. Tired and somewhat still a little sick. But unable to fall asleep as easily as other days. 

Bite the bullet. 

Oh there you go, found a neutral phrase.
