TRUTH

Everyone should want
to know the truth,
because you can only
live in this lie
for so long and then
it crumbles back to dust.

John 8:32-"And you shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you free."  
Ref. to:Romans 6:14, 18, 22.

John 14:6,7-Jesus said to him, "I am the way,
the truth, and the life.  No one come to
the Father except through me.  
"If you had know Me, you would have known
my Father also, and from now on you know
Him and have seen Him."
Ref. to: John 10:7-10 & John 8:19

John 3:16-For God so loved the World

perish, but have everlasting life.

Poetry to me comes from what someone believes in but the words are from the person not 'you must believe because I quote'.

I admire your writing and I usually read your words but that is because that come from you unadorned and unaided.

~ Truths are held by many, and they may not all agree. Enjoyed your short writing.

As each discovers truth
So we only
Live the lie
As ashes crumble into
Truth

We have only lived

The lie

Thanks James.

Lies that last possess a "grain of truth" for a one hundred per cent lie dies on its  own stalk.
