Truthful Heart

TRUTHFUL HEART
                                                                     
       My heart pulsates with Truth
           since innocence of childhood,
      passing to mature youth.
          Now senior heart to conclude
      Even ruthless, admit Truth.
            Not to worry, not to brood.
      Nothing from outside to soothe.
      
      Seeking Truth my heart to pulsate.
           Listening to Truth heart decides.
      To speak Truth heart not to hesitate.
            Inside my heart Truth resides.
      In my heart Truth to dictate.
          With lies when heart collides
      Ready to confront not to accept.
