Hiding

Hiding

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

is futile

"
Hiding from the truth
when its what you don't want to hear
Due to its harsh finality
many will have reason to fear
 
Fear is our response
reality has always been true
As long as fear was for others
it wouldn't be affecting you
 
Escape from some events
is sometimes a possible fact
But truth will always happen
no matter how we act
 
Accepting the truth with grace
when it is not easy to discuss
Is a good way face an event
if we do it with little fuss
 
If we manage to avoid
denying what we did
The whole story can be told
and nothing will be hid
 
We don't want to be accused
of something we didn't do
If we always embrace the facts
any denial won't be true
 
Denial is a form of weakness
that no one wants to hear
Being willing to face the truth
will help us deal with fear
 
Every excuse that we offer
will only hurt us in the end
We must all face the truth
its the only message left to send
