the truth can not be...(edited)

The truth can not be bought or sold,

but only told throught trust.



now what the fuck are trust and truth

i honestly dont have a clue.

but really does any one,

is there anyone who knows what the truth really is.

in fact trust is something,

that we have to be truthfull to really have.

its like haveing the perfect smile,

everyone wants it but no one has it.

and the truth always changes

to suit people the way they want it to.

even if its wrong and hurtful to others,

even thought telling the truth can do the same.

one day ull lie to protect someone u love.

then later on in life that person u tryed to protect

will find out that u lied.

and they may resent you and u will forever

be haunted by what u did.

then for u life will have no meaning

and for love it is an even greater risk.

you risk the chance of haveing a lonley existance

this i s my take on trust and the truth

only true friends can trully wield both.

I read your poems. They have potential but it seems like you're really limiting yourself by trying to fit rhyme schemes. It's like, you're adding stuff that doesn't have any place and it really screws up what you're trying to say. Maybe you should forget the rhyme scheme and just say what you feel. After all, all that matters in the end is how you feel right? Anyways, that's all. Keep up the writing it's nice to see some passion.
