Analysis of Answers Revealed
Shawnice Pate 1991 (Brooklyn)
I get sad at times over what I find out.
Must I be the one to remain in the dark?
It's not so soft and sugar-coated like I thought.
Sometimes finding out about I mean to someone hurts the most.
Isn't it funny to speak about it first?
I am needing it to be brought to the light.
They don't need to lie about themselves to me.
It's strangely a given to see the truth for myself.
The answers will reveal themselves about the questions I asked.
