The Truth Knows Your NameA Poem by Veronica ChandlerThis piece was excruciating to write, but sometimes the truth needs to be told!The Truth
Knows Your Name
I’m goin at you, with a sharp tongue to your
soft side.
Squirm all you wish to avoid the pain. Try to escape as your tears fall like
rain But I’m telling you now… The truth knows your name!
Every line on your face Every lie on your heart When your deeds are illuminated… It’ll tear you apart.
Using flesh as a weapon To
strike the heart of love Only cuts the soul of innocence And you will not rise above.
The choices you made all based on lies You’ll pay all your life despite your
cries. Hurting a child for your selfish gains Time passes but your selfishness never
wanes.
Remember little girl The truth knows your name Remember little girl The truth knows your game
Innocence will come like a thief in the
night To steal back the truth and make it all
right There’s no place to hide when
retribution stalks No escape from the price, no escape from
the locks
You’ll never hide from the innocence you
took No safe haven where ever you look Innocence knows the truth and the truth
knows your name Innocence knows the truth and the truth
knows your game. © 2016 Veronica ChandlerAuthor's Note
