The Truth Will Unravel

An unarmed soldier seeks justice 
where the wolves prowl awaiting their prey 
armed with faith silver shining chalice glowing light

Striking blows the deceiving fool flash reveals
Behind one mask lies a corrupt soul
I see the real picture frowns 

But in front of the true judge Almighty
Our Creator 
he will then face his accused head on 

Only then dawning of his final chapter
destiny in a blink of an eye showdown begins 
when a strike of someones tongue hurts 

A bully of violence casting poison each false word
condemns the innocence hope always remains 
when you see the truth clearly a chariot of fire 

Stands out a million miles away
sometimes people are quick to judge the fact hides 
in the unknown answer remains even in dust of our being 

unrhymed tercet
