Righteousness
Being right with someone else
Does that mean, truthful? Does that mean having integrity?
Deep-hearted convictions with your eyes wide open
and there are no dark corners beneath your lips
You speak straight
to the soul
No lies
unless the truth kills
But can you tell everyone your truth?
Do you understand what you hear in your heart?
Too many questions before dawn
become a dream.
Eyes of doubt, shift back and forth,
Days of silence,
Months of tears,
Years of worry,
You are broken
like splintered wood – gashed from an ax.
Can you revert it?
Go back
and surrender the time
to feel and believe that
you are real
and as long as you are human
you must look at another human
like you look at yourself.
