Honesty

Some like to be honest,
some not,

how much honesty helps with clarity

and how much in making you vulnerable,

is another question..

We can only estimate the honesty of how much others share or express

and of that unshared and unsaid.

and yet the motives or whether they mean what they say and show what they mean

is never known,

and perhaps if it isn't, 

it isn't meant for you.

Is it a gift to never really know exactly the extent of what the other feels

or what they truly feel or mean,

to only wonder and wonder 

if you alone wonder
or even care,

and be not half as deceptive
and lose out on life
and each other,

or would it help

to know to the tee,

and does anyone even care,

for that kind of meaning

and joy
or to be known,
or know?
