Truth Lost

 

Truth Lost

 

George O. Love

 

When once a man was lost in sight

There his goal not worth his fight

Found one who fought to hide

Dark secrets kept deeply inside.

 

Lost in sight the battle grew on

Dark secrets hiding rose the dawn

In a trusted stranger still betrayal lay

As he crossed the blood-strewn path at noon of day.

 

More his courage and faith over thrown

Dark secrets hide from the dawn

Trust in one or trust in none

A decision he made, a battle he won.

 

Courage high and sword now drawn,

Into the fray, he flew headlong.

Trusting now in one who may

Care not the battle be won that day.

 

Trusting one or trusting none,

His hands now weary in midst of fight

Cared now the one who shed the light

For in the battle, decisions made and allies he won.

 

Sight be lost or sight be found,

Truth now lost, so horrible that sound.

For in the midst of battle betray

The one who holds to light of day.

 

Swords still drawn as one to lay,

Waste to land in darkness of day,

Was once the man now lost in sight,

When battle became not worth his fight
