~*~

Truth is found within ourselves
surely we must keep in touch
and answer honestly to the person we've become
a cliche that proves our heart worthy.

But where does the truth lie in others
can it even be explained or understood
is it only a matter of trust or not to trust
while sitting on the edge, keeping our fingers crossed.

As I pause,the picture remains fuzzy
blurring white lies and half smiles
like playing dress up,all fancy and full
a waltz across the stage until you trip.

So like a play on words
the message is never fully understood
the curtain falls much too soon
eluding the truth,to be desired.

I like this write very much, Bluesy Lady... it made me think. *S* And my answer? *S* Time is also an element... people can fool us completely for a while if that's their aim and our guard is down... but however painful the exposure, we do eventually see what and who they are. *S*

Here... I see beauty... in both write and heart. *S*

"...a waltz across the stage until you trip."

The important thing to remember is...Stand up, dust yourself off, and finish the dance with someone who won't step on your toes.

(big hugggssssssss) I only wish it was easier to tell the truth from the untruth, like having x-ray vision and identifying where the truth be told! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, your heart is always fancy and full, yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

funny how we get tricked thinking we find it
in another, for a moment or two, only to evade us again,
and yes
the only truth is truly in own own self
we come here alone, we leave here alone,
sad but true......make what we can of it all...........

How could tomorrow be any brighter?

Mann Bluesy .  . you got it right here

But where does the truth lie in others
can it even be explained or understood
is it only a matter of trust or not to trust

actually yes and in this lies
heartbreak, love, experience, happiness
pain and joy . . .
learning . . . the hard way always
it is what you take that matters
and what you leave behind
(yes, easy for me to say Miss
Bleeding Heart herself over here)

Hey I love what you did with your picture!

Lori, this is a very true poem. We always can know
that we can find truth within ouselves....and
hope that we can find truth in others.

Yup, it's within us, so much said Ms Blues and so much to ponder

A wonderful write. Good to read you again

me thinks it's sorta like the question "is God real" - faith is all we have, and belief in our personal truth - if we're true to ourselves, always, and begin with faith in others, the loss is theirs if they can not maintain "truth".

Thoughtfully written blues....

This place, our internet can harbor so much
deceit and untruthfulness.  We can only hope
that truth prevails here as well as in our
relationships and friendships...'cause we
all thirst for honesty and truth...

Thanx Bluesy,  much here in this write...
