Plato once wrote..."We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light."
LIES IN THE LIGHT
Suppose lies were the darkness where no one could see
That facts were killed and buried there
Afraid to move about sure and free
We sit encumbered and unaware
Think about the brightest light
Where truth and lies are easily discovered
It should be easy to choose wrong from right
And reject the fallacies that become uncovered
It takes but a skillful orator
Who lives to keep us mired in the dark
And in the light his lies are covered
By sweetened promises that warm the heart
So in broad daylight he reels us in
While under the cover of darkness he schemes
That we cannot see past it is our only sin
When eventually our nightmares evolve from our dreams
Challenging times and roadblocks bring
People grasping for any hope in sight
We forget about the poisonous sting
Of lies that shower us in the light
