Truth Speaks

When lies blind the eyes,

When regret hunches the back

When self-pity prevails as 

anger's disguise

When retaliation clenches the fist 

and whacks

When loathing boils the flesh,

Truth speaks.

Truth speaks loud.

Truth speaks clear.

Truth defies the crowd.

Truth trumps meager fear.

There is much greater than vengeance

There is much more than the lie

There is much than guilt and envy

There is a Truth love can't deny
