without exception

in all honesty
there is very little complete
telling
of the truth of who
we are.

who comes clean fully?
we all
have secrets,

whether in love, or money,
sex
or what we think

about her or him.
we cower in the shadows
in prayer,

that no one ever finds out
completely

what stirs within.

in all honesty,
we lie, we deceive,
without exception,

we pretend.
