Truth Be Told Poem by Timothy Kassina

Truth Be Told

Rating: 4.8


How long shall I hide
The ailments of my heart
Or chase time and tide
With wounds that hurt
Truth now be told
That the crush broke me
Am now grown and old
And memories haunt me
If passion so pays
Then better be alone
For few remain my days
After which I'll be gone
Truth be told
That the flower is taken
And the vase sold
All is forgotten.
