Silence was indeed golden Again ???

Making us make decisions, Life
Makes us wise or other-wise ;)
But, what if they bleed as a knife
"Lost friendship " is the price ??

I won't tell this to my pal, Sometimes you feel
But then he isn't knowing the you , real

It isn't so that not telling the truth is telling a lie
But what if you say it, and end up with a sigh ??

He is a best friend - Now, was .....
Indifference portrayed, chatters now pause

Question : Was I out of my mind ??
Should I've kept the thing to myself ??
But friendship says you got to bind
Share all, be yourself...

Question : So, is the friend at fault ??
Shouldn't the friendship not be at a halt ??
But then, maybe he did not like a true you
Maybe he moved on, and so should you


The price, I have harshly paid
Still I do not regret what I had said

But you better think, NOT only twice :)
Won't NOT telling suffice ??
If you get an answer : "Don't tell"
Don't tell, or you will be in hell

Sometimes you got to be wise enough to know
You're the only one to accept You without a row

It is too bad when you realize
"TRUTH v/s FRIENDSHIP" you've to visualize

If truth is accepted you got both :)
If NOT, you take the SILENT oath
Of course, because you end up with none of them
"Silence was indeed golden" - AGAIN ???
