Don’t Be True to Me, Be True to You
Oct 1st, 2007 by pjbosc
If I see you lie to another person You most likely lie to me too
If you wash your hands before you eat I know you wash everything else too
If you are OK with taking something that isn’t yours You will take me for what isn’t yours
If you talk about others Then you talk about me too
You see it isn’t what you confide in me Confidences need not be Open and free is truth Truth doesn’t need an introduction Or a premise or a thought
Truth just is Just was Will always be
You are not any different in front of me Than behind me, when there is truth
We ask of each other many things One thing I ask of myself
To tell you the truth So that you know I am truthful To treat you with respect, Then you know I am respectful
To clean up after myself So that you know to clean up after you To leave you feeling clair So that you know my intentions are clear
You see we learn a lot from each other As we hear, see, and take part of each other And we react to each other from that truth we see
Take part in your life So that you can take part in anothers
Your children don’t hear you as loud as they see you Your friends can see you for what you have done, rather than what you say you have done Your parents know who you are, rather than who they think you are And your heart knows your truth no matter what you try to say
Truth is here It waits for us to be it We wait for us to know it We say we are looking for it, Yet it is here, and you already know of it
So use truth instead of using excuses to evade it Let truth lead you rather than what you want to be truth No need to take non truths and make them true Stop wasting your time Stop taking away from something that is already in front of you And creating drama’s to prove your point
With truth there is no point, there is only acknowledgment Evading truth is like waiting for a train that is not coming Use the clues of your life to bring you to speaking the truth for what it is Because once you are true to you, you can be true to me
Once you start speaking with your heart I want to be in your heart too Once you start cleaning around yourself, I will clean with you Once you cook a meal with clean hands, you will feed everyone
Wash your life with truth and let truth create THE PATH There is not a path, truth is THE PATH Anything else finds a way of leaving us feeling shortchanged and hungry Truth is the breath of our souls And the soul of your breaths As you can share your heart when you feel it’s purity As your purity is the most becoming feature of any of us
