What Lies Beneath the Lies

Beneath the lies is the abyss of all things unknown to others Experienced by them with their inability to face the truth Of what they have lived through, seen or done Protecting each other at all costs, fear of exposure rules So all this fear based agenda keeps them living a façade They lie to anyone, everyone, just to keep it all together As the truth bearer carries the burdens, inside a conscience All alone, weeps their tears, screams their pain, feels it for them The very things that lie beneath their lies, the truth bearer carries --------------------------As they deny ----------------------------- Heidi Sands 2/21/17 *Placed 5th in Contest: What lies beneath the lies
