DISREGARDED TRUTH

You disciplined me
For taking what I desire
You taught me to be TRUTH
Cause no one tolerates a liar

You must serve
All those who have a need
You must deliver and go
Cause you carry seed

You pour out and in
But never expect a return
To be a winning warrior
Is what you are here to learn

I'm no victim
I'm grown, I've always known
To be who I AM
It is required to be alone

...in LOVE

When He comes to claim
The very work of His hands
Will there be one human
Who will dare to understand

The price for being accepted
Is to be rejected for difference
Though integrity and passion
Are always running interference

...the scars remain

No point in running
A finger over damaged skin
The debt is forgiven
Where every possibility has been
