Distance of Light years,
Never were a twain,
Hence will never meet,
Truth and falsehood.
Falsehood is enticing,
Falsehood is sweeter,
Truth is rebellious,
Truth is bitter.
O’ what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
O’ what a coarse feel Truth hath!
In Truth is only suffering,
In falsehood is beguiling prosperity.
Falsehood gains immediate flight,
Truth is blessed with tortoise limp,
Falsehood proclaims loud brazenly,
Truth resides in stillness of pacific.
Falsehood loves to live in glare,
Truth prefers to flare in obscurity ,
Falsehood is vociferous,
Truth prospers in silence.
Falsehood dominates,
Truth seeks subservience,
Falsehood is arrogant,
Truth is humility.
In tranquil state prospers Truth,
In throes of confusion grows falsehood,
Truth is sorely pungent,
Falsehood is dipped in honeyed words.
Truth lives , grows , with angels,
Falsehood an ally of the devil
Insinuates ego to dominate,
Truth in its noblest form.
Truth an outcome of Divinity,
Falsehood is of tale makers,
Truth is timid and bold,
Falsehood is bold and timid.
Truth is Love,
Falsehood a treachery,
Truth is Romance,
Falsehood, hatred cloaked.
Truth is straight,
Crooked is falsehood,
Truth a growing presence,
Falsehood a diminishing phenomenon.
In apparent surrender is Truth,
In veneer thin is falsehood victory,
Falsehood exceeds boundaries of Truth,
Triumph of Truth over falsehood ,
Shall prevail……..
