Honor

Honor is a sham,
A lie to keep you loyal,
A betrayal veiled by a word.
Your best bet is not trusting,
For trust is a knife
And you are never on the right side of it.
Honorable is the idiot who kills himself for failure,
Dishonorable the man who runs and lives.
Yet Dishonor for all I wish,
For it may bless your life with few years more.
