To Be Honest Poems | Examples


A Good Day To Be Honest

My heart is filled with fears,
My eyes, they are full of tears.
I miss you so much that every part of my body aches.
You will never know for you I kept myself at stake.

I can't stop myself from loving you,
I can't tell myself not to think about you.
Yet you seem so nonchalant about it,
In your life I was such a misfit.

Your words and your actions don't match,
Yet every tear you shed I am ready to catch.
But for you I was never a good match.
You said there are others and I smiled.
Your love  made me beguile.

It's so clear for you I never mattered,
Now you are gone and all my dreams are shattered.

I should have known this,
Love never brings bliss.
And here I lie down and cry,
Asking myself why?
And you seem to be so fine,
I mistook you for a diamond,you were just an ordinary stone which  shined.

To Be Honest With You

Teachers know some liars will sputter
And judges know liars will mutter
But truth be told
Some are quite bold
Donald Trump will lie in the gutter!

Premium Member To Be Honest:

To be honest with you all
I am but a hack, a fraud
I contain no heart nor soul
And my mind a blunted sword.

Having moments to reflect
I now know this to be true
Searching deep within myself
For what else can a man do?

I gaze into the unknown
Into chaos and darkness
My head spinning in pain
How much left is to confess?

With paper and pen, I write
All my thoughts down as I go
This well now empty and dry
What is left for you to know?

To Be Honest

To be honest, I think you look amazing.
To be honest, I admitted that I was in love.
To be honest, being cool is worthless.

To know love is powerful.
To see through the dark sides of secrets we hide.
To feel loved is powering. 

To be complete is what I feel now.
To understand the things I go through is harder then telling a lie for me.
To be honest.

To be honest, I'm afraid of the future so I live in the past.
To be honest, I feel as if I'm hidden in your mind.
To be honest, this secret is hard to keep when you're lying awake unable to sleep.

Am I crazy?
No, just a bit insane.
Am I able to be who I truly am?
No, some say it's just a fairytale.
Am i in love with someone?
It's just a secret like my name.

Love is my lover.
Hate is a secret we bend and break our back to keep to sustain our fear.
Just a lovesickpoet writing down her deep dark secrets.
Ironic?
No just suffering through the distance of those who have demons controlling them.
Creepy?
Maybe just define Creepy and you'll figure out that secret.

To Be Honest
By Laura
November 13, 2015

Just rip me open
Tear me apart
Tell me again how you knew from the start

Make me a martyr
Tell me I'm strong
Just make me feel like I've done nothing wrong

Just pull me out of my head
Cause I really hate myself
Sometimes I wish I was dead
But instead I hurt myself 

Give me example
Show me the way
Show me the things I dont know how to say

Call me a liar
Call me a thief
Wish you could see I just need some relief

Every day I stare into the deep end
Knowing I'm no longer well
I'm both an angel and a deamon
I live in heaven and in hell

To Be Honest

To be honest I don't know what I've done...
To be truthful I hope I've made the right choice, 
to have your heart as my sun.
To be straightforward I think I've found my award.
To be direct you have a huge heart, I checked.
To be open it's hard for me to express what I mean with out chokin'. 
To be sound, our love was found.
To be fair, let's stay together and share. 
everything from the air we breathe for eternity, 
to the love we share to make each other happy.

To Be Honest

To be honest, I am not sure who I am praying to. Maybe I am talking to myself but...
To be honest, I can not take it anymore.
My life is a failure, I feel like a...
To be honest, I want to quit.
I want to quit hurting me; I want to quit hurting them.
To be honest, I do not know what to do.
For the first time, I am really lost.
To be honest, I do not know if anyone hears me.
But if someone hears, please come find me.
