Finding Truth

Truth that is masked by the heart of a man Can only explain the start of a lie A lie so heavy, it spits on your plan Left with emptiness, your soul on crows fly Lost while still young, forgotten by the path Living with shame, that no longer gives pain Held at the throat by the questions wrath How dark was made, that ignorant stain Now you delve into knowledge left by the wise In order to uncover a truth that was hidden Burdened with sorrow whilst the nurser cries Hindered by usurpers who have want of no lesson Hold on to the railing, prepare a strong mind For never you know what's out there to find

The truth spoken well in this piece. Lying is a disease and once someone starts lying he or she has to keep lying. Thank you for this great reminder to be honest.
