The Truth

The Truth

Truth is a hard thing

to come by nowadays.

There are so many ways

to tell a lie

but you can never beat

the truth

because

the truth

will set

you free

and you will gain

the trust

of many.

True Beauty

True Beauty

What is beauty?

Is it your face?

Or that coat of make-up

covering up your face.

Is it your body?

Or the flashy clothes you wear?

Is it your hair?

Or that careless style

That took you hours to perfect

Is it your personality?

Or that fake laugh

covering up the true feelings

What is true beauty?

I believe it is the heart

Whether you love others

more than yourself,

when you would be willing

to sacrifice your make-up and flashy things

to feed the hungry.

When you live truthfully

true beauty is found

in the heart.
