Truth?
Shadows sway near them, blurring boundaries
Moments of betrayal bleed,
foggy windows don’t lie.
In a trance, I watch how flimsy is trust
how relationships wither
on obscure paths of love.
The definition of deceit is vague,
clouded by lies of judgment
truth holds various hues!
Your truth crouches behind the man you chose
My truth is so translucent
Yet it is soaked in blood.

Truth and its myriad hues! We lay too much emphasis on love. Such a layered response. Love it.

Oh this is so poignant Balroop. I really was blown away by the ending. Thanks for joining in.
I am delighted to hear that, Sadje. Thank you so much.

Haha! Just my imagination, Denise. I have to think again. Thanks for sharing an inspiring thought. 🤗
This reads like the prologue to a horror story. 🙂 Great job!
Oh! I didn’t have anything like that in my mind. Thanks for sharing your thought, Jan.
What a powerful response, Balroop! “Truth holds various hues” So sad, and I didn’t expect that ending. Wonderful! 💕
I didn’t know how the ending came but I like it. 😊 Thank you Lauren.
Sometimes, those are the best. You’re welcome, Balroop! 🥰
That’s a powerful poem, Balroop. Truth seems very subjective these days, and that’s scary as heck. I’d go for translucent truth any day.
Great poem, Balroop!
