kimber harrison - A Thousand

A thousand lies, A thousand lies
They came at me,
from all sides.

A thousand truths, A thousand truths
They fly around me,
fly aloof.

A thousand lies,
they seep inside.
Deep inside.

They set their roots,
tough, hard roots.
Making the lies seem,
like The Truth.

A thousand truths,
they fight the lies,
but the roots dig deeper,
right in front of my eyes.

A thousand truths, A thousand truths.
They never give up,
they still fight the roots.

The roots, the roots.
They bring such pain.
They pierce my heart,
I wish they wouldn't have came.

The fight, The fight,
it rages on.
The Truth won't give up,
no matter the sunsets or dawns.

'The Truth! The Truth!
Embrace the truth! '
I can't hear the words,
because of the roots.

'Do it now. Please, do it now.'
The words are a whisper,
I want to hear but don't know how.

'Give you heart! Your heart! Your heart! '
I hear the words,
like I've heard from the start.

The lies, The lies.
The roots, The roots.
The give up and disappear,
to The Truth.

Poet's Note--
If your wondering what this poem is about,
then here it is. It's almost like the spirtual
warfare always going on, and how the devil
(the lies) are trying to pull you away from the truth
(God) Hope you enjoyed!
