Love and Truth

I followed love, and it broke me open, the heart wound, suffering, beyond my imagination In my hurt, i lost everything and those nights as i cried alone and cold I heard loves voice "I come and i go like the spring. Why worship only my coming? My departure is my greatest gift. The wound i leave you with is Truth, my immortal lover. He is your teacher and will never leave you". Truth told me how small my love was, an addiction, to own another. Truth taught me of a greater love. He told me the secrets of love, the beauty of the agony. How to be with love, how to carress her. I still worship love, adore her beauty, pray to taste her soft lips again, but now, i also worship truth, He showed me my purpose. He made me into a man, a warrior. I defend the weak, i fight for their freedom. I carry the flaming sword of truth. If you live to oppress, for greed, or hate I will crush you, slice you, bring you to your knees, make you cry at the alter of truth, begging loves forgiveness. And after you accept them as your masters, I will mend your wounds, and carry you across the desert back to life, a new life, immortality. You and I become one with Love and Truth, intertwined, as immortal lovers, inseparable for eternity. My friend.

Nice. This reminds me of a Pink Floyd music video for some reason.
