Ask Me Not

Ask me not what is truth
when only lies are heard
Ask me not where is proof
when only facts are absurd
Ask me not how is love
when only hate is cherished
Ask me not why pray above
when only the good perish
Ask me not who am I alone
when only truth leaves my lips
Ask me not if throwing stones
when only words my flesh rips
