Weakness

One thing about me

Is that I’m honest to a fault

When it comes to situations

That would benefit me

Even if it wouldn’t hurt anyone else

Though

My morals exist

On a slide

When it comes to others

So, if I’m ever caught lying

It’s most likely

For the benefit of others

Though

This gets me in trouble

Mostly with my own self

As often times

I’ll lie about how I feel

Knowing the truth won’t change anything

So I try not to bother others

With my miserable fate

That they cannot change

That’s why

I find myself

Isolating

As at my foundation

I Am honest

So

I’d rather be alone

Than put in a situation

Where I have to choose

Whether to tell the truth

Or to potentially hurt you

Which is also why I find myself

At peace – not with those

Who are necessarily honest

Rather those who won’t judge me

For being honest with them
