Analysis of Truth Is Free As Well is Air To Breathe



Live for truth.
Leave others who are offended.
And defend in protest.
Their right to be wrong.
Getting upset.
The moment someone objects.
24 hours.
Day and night long.

Live for truth.
Past experiences to have,
Can never undo a truth shown to you.
Not even for an ego.
Limited and self deceiving,
False realities kept to keep,
Seldom brings a peaceful sleep...
To a frustrating mind trying to find,
Someone to accept what is wrong to please.

Live for truth and honesty to live it.
To see it to have,
In others living their lives to this as well.
Never agrue with those,
Who live to defend...
What in their minds yet to experience.
With ears and eyes limited to stubbornness.
Leave them alone until truth to them is shown.

Since...
Are you out to sell your truth?
Or...
Does it freely come out of your mouth?
Unknowing to comprehend,
It may offend others wanting to be sold...
On what you do or do not know.
And that to sell,
Is not worthy of an argument that heats.
To escalate into an awaiting ignorance!

Truth is free.
Some have found it.
Some won't.
Some may hesitate to consider it.
And some only wish to win an argument.
By any means necessary.
Just know who they are before they start.
Then leave.
With mouth shut.
A back turned.
A deep breath to inhale.
And feeling relief to again breathe freely. As
