In The Love Of Truth Poem by Nina Ali

What would you do,
If love was in your hands?
If the gates of truth were in the horizon,
But you’re told that the keys are mere mirage?
Will you still gaze upon the gates waiting for a chance?
Waiting for a glance,
What if the keys were not lost?
Buried deep underneath your feet in sot,
What then will you do if a claimed hero offers you his wings?
To fly away, leave all behind and stop searching for the truth of things,
To take what is in your hands and be content,
To not miss the true life that to you has never been.
Will you take love as your only truth?
Or will you turn around; lose sight of what you’re leaving behind,
Abandon yourself in the kingdom of loss,
After once so close to the gates of heaven?
Or will you stand above the keys u know are there?
And trust in faith, love and truth, then what you stand for will be who you are.
