Truth Hurts, but It’s Brutally Beautiful
In the smallest particles,
With shining light,
It slips through stone walls,
Iron gates, and barriers.
Even from tanks,
Machine guns,
The most secure vaults,
And encrypted hard drives,
Truth escapes,
Emerging from the darkness.
It cannot stay hidden for long;
Eventually, it steps into daylight.
It tells its story with courage,
With clarity,
Revealing the difficult journey,
The fear of speaking out,
Without prejudice,
And without seeking the spotlight.
For all of humanity,
Truth calls to us-
To cast aside our blinders,
Those foggy lenses of luxury,
And seek a brighter vision.
Let us offer a better way:
A light of kindness,
Empathy and fairness.
That surpasses all human limits,
Guiding us to live in harmony,
Reassured by the justice of brighter lights.
