Truth

Like wisdom, it is loved

Greatly admired by his author

Lived with ancients

As old as time itself



Yet the test of time stands

Albeit a bitter pill

But honey indeed

Neglected in secret



Rejected by deceit

Abhorred by violence

Scorned by evil

Surfaces triumphant



Still not tampered with

Hates to hear dethroned

Wears victorious armor

The potent sword of defense



The joy of the helpless

Though ephemerally buried and covered

Rises up uncovered

Who can tamper with Truth?

Surely, it can never die.

hey me again, it was nice. all the big self rightoeus words were okay and the title was abit 13-yr-old's-first-effort. I mean titles like that used to be great until little ditzy dipshits mass-produced it but other then that a great example of fine poetry.
