Where does BS start and end?

Although I do have a couple of degrees.

The others for my honesty.

Are the purest honesty...

The most precious of words are these three
When emotions demand honesty
Not said to control
Not meant to cajole
At least not when spoken to thee

but his honesty didn't keep pace.
His shots hit pockets
as if guided rockets
thanks to his laser in its place.

Time

Time is a concept 
But if you’re honest
It’s the most wasted 
Sometimes complicated
When all you’ve done is waited
For memories to be created

Hurt

the hurt and the torment,
the words and the lies,
the truth and the honesty?
why oh why.

single looks,
explain you,
single wonders,
hurt me.

Premium Member honesty is so easy

honesty is so easy
you can tell the story a hundred times
and not have to think
it flows
because it is the truth
liars have a more difficult time

Premium Member For my Lee

You are my poetry.
You are my Tarzan. 
You show me birds
above the trees 
and offer great
music 
to my soul.

My Lee…
you make me feel alive.
