Eventually, the party stops
people filter out, one by one
left alone with ones thoughts
about where this all leads
A happy ending
or a bitter end
Of course we try to put on
the mask of indifference
but it never stays securely in place
what lies beneath belies the facade
Is it better to live transparently?
to wear ones heart on sleeve
for all the world to see,
and pity?
Blessed be those that live and know themselves
for they walk in the light of truth
they cannot bear a lie,
from without or within
They trust their inner voice to guide them,
second guesses are for fools.
The path of righteousness is beset on all sides
by the tyranny of humanity
With will unbroken, stand tall with head held high
Face them with unblinking eye
Do not reject love, but always treat it
as an impostor
Never love something so much
that you cannot stand to see it die
Humanity is beautiful, but most beautiful
of all is woman.
And as a wise man once said
' The world is a fine place, and worth fighting for'
I agree.
