the problem with honesty and the affects of treachery

     
        
There's something        
to be said for pure        
good old-fashioned        
honesty        
       
When you're up front        
sincere in thought  
and deed        
crystal clear        
in all that's recognized        
as        
your truth.        
       
So—        
       
To me,        
treachery        
is taking        
that extremely  
thoughtful        
and hard explained  
candidness—        
       
and pissing        
all over it.
       
       
Because  
when someone says        
"I like you"        
be it friend        
or a dreamed potential for more        
(which really is rather nice)        
flattering,        
uncommonly adorable;        
       
and should        
be something that's        
never to be taken for granted        
especially when        
that scarce bravery        
extends to        
       
..."but I would like to take        
it slow and steady"...
       
       
specifically    
to avoid confusion    
~ mind you ~      
       
having those words        
not only agreed to        
but        
reinforced  
and        
agreed to  
in earnest.
       
(supposedly)        
       
... Well,    
until they aren't ...        
because of—        
   
Does it matter?        
       
       
Then        
to me        
that's        
treachery—        
       
       
       
       
       
so we're clear.
