Deceptive Truth
by An Angel

The heart bleeds
A thousand drops for each fleck of pain
Embedded over the years
Twisted into the knot
Memories of what once was

Truth writhes in agony
A white-capped pond ready to purge over its banks
Filled over the years
Contorted into the knot
Memories of what once was

Lies crawl forth
A billion gnats in a blinding cloud, swarming
Formed over the years
Grotesquely tightening the knot
Perceived to be what is

Deception spits on the heart
Glassy and slippery it eats away at truth
Lies waste the years
Forming the knots
Destroying what truly is

and so, the climb begins...

When humans play 'God', what is truth gets lost....
Happiness, people and joy: destroyed... in favor of personal gain...
But is it worth it? For those with no conscience, maybe. For those who are hurt, it is a long climb back from the depths of the confusion and disbelief.
To all who've been hurt, have faith. The truth comes out. It always does.

This is my reflection dealing with a personal trial of such genre...

Brilliantly written...agree with Jay and Cathy...also the climb is worth it as long as it's always in an upward direction...;-)
Reviewed by Cathy Montgomery (Reader) 5/9/2002
Unfortunately, it happens too often...but--
what Jay says is so fortunately right!!
Good expressive writing...
