Suicide By Sincerity

 Suicide By Sincerity

There is a way to die 
Slowly
And all alone: 

Be sincere

Now wait
For the noose
Of misunderstandings 

Cunning pulls the trigger
Planting  
Evidence everywhere


 

 
Choosing to live with sincerity, I am misunderstood, or sometimes,  more painful, purposely maligned. 

Understanding these consequences,  still, I press on.
