What Is the Truth

The truth is beyond what our eyes can amount to The truth is Real The truth is Odd The truth can Heal but can't be bought. The truth is Beauty The truth is Solid The truth Will stand when all else falls. The truth doesn't age But we age with the truth. Just like one plus two makes three The truth to any degree, Will set us free. The truth is a needle residing in a galaxy Compelling to believe it's all but a fallacy The truth can hurt, as we all know But lies can heal?! That may be so For every lie, the truth appears And so the lies remain ensnared And as we filter and realize that all that glitters isn't gold. That dignifies youth, In other words Not all that sounds right is the Truth.
