Good Intentions
Why should i ever bare my heart
to some indifferent strangers
with all my secrets torn apart
for gossipers and their dangers?
Because i have nothing to hide
for such rumor-mongers to spread,
and nothing has to be denied
as if it were something i said.
I like to express inner thought
if i think it might help someone.
I have no fear of being caught
for something i have said or done.
Perhaps i am being naive
in exposing what i believe.
