The mangled truth upon the page
Like smoke rising above
And no one likes to look at
The last few drops of blood

The mangled truth is like a sting
That goes through my own heart
And pierces me like whithered rings
I once wore upon my hand

The mangled truth is only a lie
Told to those who will believe
Anything bad will happen
To those who do not suceed.

Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual.

This one stings, that's for sure.
Indeed, truth is hard to come by and most truths out there are just that - mangled.
Very good work.
