If love were honest



   If love were honest all would attest that only true love is confessed and if love were honest all would abide that hurt would be, only pride, if love were honest it wouldn't hide, mask intentions, set aside, if love were honest yours and mine, simple, pure, unique, devine, if love were honest,would have shown the only here is mine alone , if love were honest I'd sleep alone, as it, your lies, could not condone, if love were honest, only if, there'd be a line and not a rift, my love is honest as all can see, I've it for you, you've not it for me.
