The Truth Stood Downcast in the Lie
(Quatern for Poetry soup Contest)
By Franklin Price
8/3/2016
The truth stood downcast in the lie
Could not quite fathom reason why
Rolled off the tongue as if was true
Believed was right what else to do?
I hung my head began to cry
The truth stood downcast in the lie
Wish I could take those words back in
Do not know how I would begin
Meant nothing by that little white
Knew I could never make it right
The truth stood downcast in the lie
I'm so embarrassed I could die
Was my mistake I take the blame
Admit I did it give my name
It will be okay bye and bye
The truth stood downcast in the lie
