THE HIDDEN TRUTH
This is the time
Time to face the truth,
Truth behind the wall of lies,
Lies hidden in the depth of heart,
Heart that never forget both,
Both left a memory to recall.
At dusk:
When darkness has arrested the day,
And brightness has tardily gone to roost,
Vision has been forced to wear a shade,
Details has faded like the tones of an old recording.
Without arm or sword,
Shadows of deceit invaded the world.
Like a pandemic disease,
Humans now suffer Outbreak of fallacy.
Lies have shielded the beauty of truth,
The world now dwell in pretence, why???
Humans now assume false identity,
Wearing mask of self concealment about.
Conformity to reality has dwindled away,
Like the faded color of an old shabby clothes.
Humans now appreciate illusory ideas,
And celebrate the love of fantasy, why???
Where are the virtues of man???
In the face of this overwhelming lies,
A life full of integrity; I symbolise,
Beautify with honesty and sincerity,
A world full of serenity of decency.
Should the world willingly decide,
To break out from this shield of lies,
Remove the mask and face the fact,
And the reality of our existence,
Pledge to live in deed and in truth.
