Moment of Truth



All day, All Alone
Waiting for the day
When you will tell me the Truth
When you speak it, but
You are scared, and Puny
So you wont ever tell
The truth to a single person
Im not wimpy, but you
Are I can be punched
I can be kicked but
Only Because I hide the
Truth. So stop and tell
Me the dreadful news
Listen to me
You call me dumb, but I
Will come and Haunt you
Tell the truth, tell it
now so before you
 Put yourself in danger before
It  defeats you
Tell me the Truth
You disobey for it will come out
and for the truth
I speak of
Will hurt you When it comes out the World
will fill with
Darkness Since you didnt tell the
Truth!
