If one is not truthful

How can one’s soul thrive

amidst the pollution of lies

 

Now to speculate…if one is so removed

from their heart, if lies do not seem

to consciously appear to erode the soul by guilt

then one should be alarmed by the cutting off of their own heart

 

Such a one wonders why one does not feel at the heart level…

Is the pain of remorse too great, or is the angst at feeling nothing too great?

 

All that’s left to appear is despair & wishing death

Is there any ability to return to heart, by way of truth?

 

Why such willful blindness to ignore the truth

to do so kills

Can’t one see

the truth

does set one free!
