When ones truth becomes distorted, letting outside influences mold our thoughts and actions, we lose ourselves in the abyss of no return.

Truth lies within us all Tarnished by our egos, Taunting evil voices Trusting bad decisions, Toughen, bruised and shattered Transgressions repeated Trapped, a vicious cycle

Paul, actually this was the first time I ever used this form and found it quite a challenge, so your comment really gives me a boast! Cheers, Paulette

If we can't trust ourselves, who can we trust...lol unfortunately, not too many. But trust me, Paula...you wrote this pleiades very well. Kudos! I too, am new to this form, not so easy. Blessings Charlie

Hi Charlie, You are right~this is not an easy form I worked on this for quite some time, determined to accomplish a concise explanation of the Senyru~ I think I did ok...Blessings, Paulette

I come across with a variety of new poetry forms here. I must experiment with Pleiades. I can look up to this poem and make it my model. Thanks a lot Paulette !

WE need to realize that our truth is more accurate then someone else's truth of us, or else we will keep mirroring their truth and not ours. Well written , with great thoughts behind it, :)

Yes, there are times when we second guess our good decisions, and follow the wrong path. It is important to be strong in who we are and what we believe in. Blessings, Paulette

Mala, Thank you for commenting....the Pleiades form is new to me, so I am very happy I was able to convey a 'truthful' message. Blessings, Paulette

I remember we had many contests for Pleiades by our friend Kim Merryman.

Pleiades form is new to me, so I thought I would give it a try. A very interesting form to creatively communicate. Blessings, Paulette

Yep! Been on that ride. Thought it was impossible to get off. We can convince ourselves of anything, the mind listening to the trickster. Better to let Christ handle it for us -- needing only to ask. Blessings my friend.

I have a philosophy: if I have to go out of my way, to convince myself of something, a long internal debate -- it is generally wrong. Truth needs no affirmation, but its presence. Joe.

Glad my message was loud and clear~in life we are always being tested~"Truth" should be the only thread we weave throughout our lives. Finding truth is easy, as you said, ask, and Christ will answer. Blessings, Paulette
