Truth

Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.” 

 Henry David Thoreau



The truth is seldom easy
I've got to live my life without fear
without the sweet denial to calm my nerves
honesty to myself if nothing else
how could I consider anything less

Is it really easier to live that way?
to close my eyes and waste my days
how do I find the balance
what needs to be done
what can't be compromised....


and really where do I go from here, after a while talk becomes redundant and sooner or later ...
