Victor Ukoyen Poet Lyric

One Silly Truth

TITLE : one silly truth 

I never knew I never knew 
that the truth  
That give birth to life hurts 
That promises sleeps with conditions
That the repented heart 
Must avoid restitution
That forgiveness and love 
Works narrowly 
But may never meet
Love is hate
But hate can't be love


One silly truth
Why do love likes  
secrets and deceit
How can love detest  honesty
Why did God created men 
to love lies
Questions and disordered mystery
When i say I cheated on you
I needed your help
And not your judgement
I leave the last line for you
To tell me I can sleep

Susan Mills November 16, 2018 at 1:10 PM Why did God create us to love and make lies? Philosophical poem here. So, the person in the poem is forthcoming about cheating and realizes they need support rather than condemnation. Intricate and tangled emotions in your poem. Thanks!

Luke Hobbs October 1, 2018 at 7:01 PM Victor, you have managed to speak about some pretty complicated topics (destiny, fatalism, value systems) in a very approachable way. Unique perspectives. Well done, sir. Victor Ukoyen September 19, 2024 at 11:13 AM Thank you too sir, God bless u
