Encounter with Truth

A desperate try

To hide it, to fake it

Like no one is watching

Like no one would ever find

You lie, to none other than yourself

Oh you poor animal!

Your eyes wider, your muscles stressed

Your ears ringing, your hands shake

Heartbeat racing, breathes out of sync

Still you make your lips dance

Bringing an evil smile to distract

No one but your own soul!

You thought you could get away with that?

To fool someone was that easy,

Like telling a kid, there’s a granny on the moon

Shame on you, coward

Beware! Before it’s too late

Before it starts killing you, mercilessly

When you sleep, or in dream

When you awake, or at work

Before your own soul refuses

to recognize you, to forgive you!

You could never make truth your slave

Whether Keeping it decorated, or beneath diamond walls

Neither Make-up nor fancy gold sheet would work

It’s eternal; it is no one’s prisoner

And, once it would start dancing naked

You would beg for mercy, you would cry for death!
