Nothing But the Truth

my conscience needs sleeps
but am not apart
converses with my heart
silently and never peeps

my heart keeps beating  
savior of my mind  
never prances, never behind
always true, never cheating

my soul will scorn  
either which is hollow
morality chooses to follow
truth will be sworn
