Truths

One of my first poems starting out into the world of poetry. Dated: mid 2005

I have seen the truth in a hand full of dust,
Seen the truth from the lightest touch,
All we see what we are its all lies,
Emptiness is a parody of the lies we live.

The longer we see the farther we crawl,
the closer we are to the farther we have come,
Are exist is flawed if only we could run the distance,
To see the door of truth a place of dreams,
I have run far and seen more then anyone can.

I have seen the truth that is life,
Past the sugar coated toppings of my reality,
What I see is what I get all I know is nothing true,
what I have is nothing to forget but my life is a lie.

I have see the other side,
I am scared to go back,
What I have seen you can only dream,
But now I know to much.

I can not go back or I will forget,
All I have seen are my memories a lie,
Is everything I was taught a false rise,
Can I forget what I saw?
