Truth Above All

What should I write about?

Truth, that is all!

But there is mine,
yours...

and then His of course:

compassion
unbending--
forgiving
unending--

though we are inclined
to weakly compromise;
change only when 
uncomfortably pressed;
(having tilted, after being lavishly blessed)
wipe the slate clean
reluctantly, for forced
by self-created 
negative circumstance
to heavily lean--

His love is faithful
regardless our fault,

Divine Witness
the crucified Christ.
