False Hood, Composed 3/31/10


Unspoken words are oft louder than those
Spoke freely but without sincerity.
The lie: you planned it well, good words you chose.
But why do you hide such a thing from me?
Although you never spoke of it aloud,
Deception falls to your betraying eyes
And though you thought it muffled in dark shroud,
The truth screams out, loud, high above the lies.
And now you’re caught, no shadow hides your shame,
But still you cannot accept you are wrong;
You wonder why nobody trusts your name!
And don’t let me keep you from your false song,
But as you go I leave you with a line:
One thousand lines can’t beat a truth divine.
