Honesty

I'm not able to fake the niceties.

Nor feign a smile where one is not.

It's a curse amongst society.

Who scheme, and stew and plot.

Over the years I've played a bit

in the cesspool with their team.

I've tried my best to follow suit

disdain shining like a beam.

I've always been a lone wolf

In my mind, my heart, my soul

In a room that's filled with people

I'm ever distant from the whole.

Though distant, I am thoughtful

of the few I hold so dear.

For when I love it's steadfast,

wholehearted, loyal and true.
