TRUTH

Truth is alive

The antithesis of Lie

More than a concept, idea

Or thing

Truth is a Person

Truth can be you

Or anyone else who uses it

It fills the heart of those who hear it,

Truth has a voice

Anyone can hear it;

Babes speak the truth

Out of their mouths.

It sounds like a sweet babbling brook;

A soft song emanating from thin air

Arising from your own soul spirit

When all is quiet

At certain moments maybe alone at night

When peace a companion

Of truth soothes you

Truth is blind

Lady Justice,

Balance in her hand,

Two edged sword in the other

Represents truth

“What is truth,” asked one named Pontius

Pilate did not know as he washed his hands

And Truth remained silent.

He proclaimed to the screaming crowd,

He spoke the truth when he said:

“I find no guilt in this man, . . .”

. . .Truth,

In image of man,

Said: “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.”

Truth is invisible but can be seen

The blind can see it

Those who deny it, cannot, (will not).

A heavy load carried

To them that suppress it

Weightless to those who admit it

Sets free all who welcome it

Truth is eternal, has always lived

Is alive, will never die,

Cannot die.

It is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Truth is light, as death is dark

Truth is power - raises the dead

Cannot be buried or bought

It’s free.

Lies are expensive and can hurt and kill

Truth destroys lies -

Priceless.

Truth cannot be buried or hidden,

Is light, shines in darkness - guides, leads,

Fire and lightening obey Truth

Mysterious to define or describe,

No prison can confine, no force can manipulate

She is beautiful, she can break you out of captivity

Even when fear denies her, or guilt rejects her

She is faithful,

Courage follows her around admiring her.

When death grabs and bullies who mentions her name

She defends valiantly.

Truth spoke long ago,

Still heard today,

“Know the truth and it will set you free.”
