My Truths Denied

I am not a perfect girl, and so often I fail with the truth; I thrive for sincerity, honesty, integrity, openness and for genuineness, and know what my wisdom gathered says about being truthful. And I know right and wrong, I know what I have read in the Bible scriptures; but sometimes I have lied to protect another persons soul. Have said that I didn't cry when I definitely did, denied my biggest fear and deep hidden secrets; and the life mistakes- I made. Yes, a thing is either true or it is not. but my spiritual self and soul wavers on this often; for sometimes the truth is hurtful like when my mother asked- Will I die ? ____________________ July 7, 2021 Poetry/Free Verse/My Truths Denied Copyright Protected, ID 07-1359-320-07 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Written for the Premier contest, Once More I Failed The Truth sponsor, Kai Michael Neumann, Judged 07/28/2021

Great example for the contest, Constance. It is a shame the we have to ignore somethings to save hurt on others. And yes, truth can be a snake that bites. Enjoyed reading
