Oath For Trust

A forward is backward,
A backward is forward.
A cycling chain of progress,
Is someone delivering fairs?

After an oath a person commits,
He will speak truth, solely truth,
But never prefers to speak truth,
Is society’s business based on lie?

Why does a person need an oath?
What is problem he can’t speak truth?
Why a person doesn’t trust on others?
Then what is importance of faith?

Is a person need oath for trust?
What is wrong in our system?
A person afraids to speak truth,
Is person able to refine frustration?

How long we need more experience?
If a person didn’t learn about 20 centuries,
A knowledge and achievement has points,
People need more education to speak truth.
