Truth

Truth can be heard in the honesty of a lion’s roar.
Truth can be felt in the blistering heat of the committed sun.
It can also be surmised from one elevation to the next,
in the changing of a mountain terrain.

But what truth can be uttered from a tongue through ones lips,
‘less it first travels from the center of their soul,
moving through the center of their heart?

Know that to understand it as truth,
it must also pass through the center of our hearts,
being able to dwell in the center of our souls,

Let then no truths live only in the houses of our passions or desires,
or even our dreams, for those houses will be only then to crumble,
leaving our hearts and souls grieving amongst the ruins for what has been lost.
