Honesty

My friends place a lot of trust in me.
I'm proud of that concession.
the trust I've worked and strived for
is my most valued possession

Apples may be sweet
but truth is sweeter still
I'd much rather lose my farm
than lose my honor's feel

You see it's important to me
to be one of honesty
without it I would be lost without it
which is why I hold it closely

When I was little
My parents used to say
Honesty is like a well made boat
and I still think that today

Without it you'd be left to swim
and maneuver through your lies
and although some may prefer the deeps
I prefer the dry

I never have to hide my face
in shame of what I've said
I never have to dodge a question
I can provide an answer instead

I've always considered Honesty to be the absolute best policy
no exceptions, not ever
And I hold true to that every day
I tell the truth now and forever

I'd never lie
I mean it.
I'm honest.
And trustworthy.
I'd never give up on my friends
And so I'll be honest
Because Honesty is important among us
And I'll always remember that.
