Honesty is a reflection of your morality.
A measure of your conscience’s purity
It can not be inherited or be taught
nor can it be wrenched or robbed.
It comes to you naturally
and goes on to define your personality.
Yet it is a heavy burden to carry.
Like an albatross it rides piggy
and begets you with troubles many.
The greedy don’t find it worth a penny.
The opportunist consider it unnecessary.
The manipulative perceive it as an enemy.
It can show you as foolish and stubborn very
or can fetch you plaudits plenty.
It is not a preference or a choice
but it is your sub conscience‘s voice.
You either listen to it or muzzle it conveniently.
