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 -----------------------------------

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!

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.
