truth and dare
Where honest persons
Live in fear
of reprisals
And doors of judgement
Guard vacuums,
with exonerated offenders
And closed fists
Tremble uncontrollably
to point fingers
We live in a world
Of life’s not over
For villains of hope
And mothers of better
And closed lips don’t speak
Truth nor lies
All dumbfounded to
the victim’s cry
In this abyss, here of
Truth and die
We live in a world of
Bribe or blast
Where transparency
Can kill you fast
when just men
pass on to rest in peace
Closed eyes don’t see
These tears of grief,
neither faces of unbelief
We live in a world of
Senseless senses
Where honest persons
Live in pretenses
And hope of another day
closed ears don’t hear
And dark secrets are kept
In deep despair
Because honest persons live in fear
In this world of truth and dare
