Fear the truth sometimes



Fear the truth sometimes, fear the truth.

Something so simple can shatter all you knew

It can complicate all things, giving new logic

and strange meanings to old feelings.

The truth is like a song to be sang

only at the depths of the sea,

To be heard of by no one, only the water and fishes

fear the truth sometimes, fear the truth

Something so small, can forever ruin you.

Harold Bologi

I'm Harold Bologi, I've been writing since I can remember but I never took it seriously until quite recently. I love short, straight to the point poems, I'm not particularly a fan of long lingering poems. I really hope you enjoy reading as much as I do writing. more…
