Heinous Truths

Many stories surround creatures which we have little understanding, some are accepted then yet others are feared and thus condemned to a life of misery. Humans carry a gene that gives the ability to be cruel and sometimes heinous towards something that does not meet their meaning of normality. The eyes are not windows into the mind they are only pathways in which images reflect; reflection can fool for we do not look past what we see in front of us. Many creatures suffer brutality by many thus they turn cold and withdrawn; sadness radiates within their lonely souls. Darkness follows, like an irksome stain that refuses to be removed from sight only becoming more immovable as time goes on. Heinous truths are rarely revealed, sadly they are part of society forever drowning in deceit and propaganda; light will only be shown when honesty and truth prevail.
