Upon the tongue so wicked, yet desired,
if not offered lies seem to grow with speed.
A truthful man is sincerely desired,
but for this emotion, we should take heed.
Lies coat the lips generously most often,
frail beliefs are the idiot's downfall.
Untrue events of love the most common,
the truth be known when backed against a wall.
If not wholehearted a passionate kiss,
the taste upon the tongue is bitterness.
Only to be hope for such eternal bliss,
this is the truest of passion's sweetness.
Being sincerely honest I believe,
the best policy is not to deceive.
Timothy Michael DiVito c2020
