~ THE LIAR ~

~ THE LIAR ~

More than joyous am I
Content to breathe the air
When out of the darkness
My lies, my indiscretions
My soul is being laid bare
For it is into the light
And into the honesty
Of one's life's misfortunes
Where true baptism
Is rarely
Anointed...

Disappointed is he
Who mixes sweet recreation
Together with lies he's told
For during sound sleep
Where his dreams unfold
The lust unseen, unknown
Steal from the world
And in life unfurl
The creator's most picturesque
And blackened
Sheep...

The liar is blessed
With God's most
Close to the vest
Holy secrets
Secrets of piracy
And secrets
Of trust....

What, a word, to end. Trust,
There is light, in being able to see, in the eyes of a stranger....help.
There, lies the over-riding ambition, of a force for good. Shown in each, that, is worthy.
There, in the heart and soul is the yearning, to produce better. For, those to come. :) :)
LIVE, TO LEARN. TO, MAKE BETTER OF, IT. TO, DISCOVER, MORE.
And, enjoy, it.Ā  :)
