Getting to Truth

Swoons in silent circles.

Hides in shadows

     Dawn to setting sun.

Layered frowns of ups and downs

     Reflecting choices one by one.

Subtle comment

     Sudden conflict

Battle scar that never heals.

Time records

     And hearts remember

Every lie the truth reveals.

Hidden behind walls of quiet,

Trampled by a thunderous heard,

Wrapped in rhetoric, overstated or

Vanquished by a single word.

Delicate on angel wings.

Balancing on tilted scale.

Market price?

Sold by the slice.

Sign in window:

“Truth for Sale.”

So it goes and

No one knows just

Where it grows from seeds of youth.

Its journey fair to bring it where

Bright beacons glow on golden truth.
