Truth (I)

by emmerz   May 17, 2007


Im the thing you ignore,
The one you dismiss,
The words never said
Between your lips.

People sure like
To stretch me out,
Yet once Im myself again
I hold no doubt.

Though at times
I can be hard to hear
(Im the guide gently whispering
In your ear)

When you reveal me to others
Their true colors show.
I seem to cause trouble
Wherever I go.

I dont understand
Why they hide my face-
I didnt mess up
Theyre just hiding self-disgrace.

I delight when people
Admit that theyre wrong;
Because I, truth,
Was there all along.

**again, english class, goal was to use personification**
