Heart Truth

He may lie to the whole world; Rob he may the entire world, But have you truly noted one Escaping from his faulty heart? He may pick a delicate flower, And create a castle sky high, But have you seen a man ever Mending his crumbling heart? He may win the entire world; Lords may kiss his velvet feet, But can he ever, truly heal His doomed, aggrieved heart? August 4, 2020
