SHOW ME TRUTH

I do not understand this place we live and call our home.

We gather all our comforts in, still we stand alone.

We venture out beyond the edge, yet what is there to see?

I’ve found there’s not much waiting there but more hypocrisy.

Give more of yourself than what you trust will be returned?

This will only lead to self destructive lessons learned.

Growing up we learn so many lessons to survive.

Times are getting tougher now, there’s more we need to thrive.

The body is a temple, treat it with utmost respect!

Nourish body, mind, and soul together or repent!

Know the people in your life are there to hold you true,

Question motives of the ones who say but do not prove,

Know you're worth more than a simple phrase or verbal state,

Actions speak a greater force than words upon your plate,

Give and take is all the same to some who do not know,

The difference lies in those who care enough to truly show.
