Honesty

Honesty is very hard in addiction.

Especially when you’re in denial and won’t admit to conviction.

Honesty, open-mindedness, and willingness. Is it really that easy?

I always thought who cares for this, what’s the reason?

Everyone tells a little white lie.

People are scared to hear or tell the truth, they just might cry.

I’ve been lied to by so many people.

The lies all play in my head like a TV sequel.

Why should I be honest? When no one’s really been honest with me?

I had to wait until I was 18 to see through all those lies and oh now I really see.

Oh honesty you think you’re the best.

To me you really just hurt people, is that really what’s best?

 I don’t think honesty is the best policy; some things are better off left unsaid.

But what do I know, I’m just a 19 year old who’s always been lied to, so to me honesty is dead. Oh honesty you’re so dead!
