Truth I See



What you see is what you will,
From now til the end.
There is no wiseman to whom falls the blame.
Light and dark are not outside but within,
Its a matter of choice.
The gift given all,
from powers that are.
I demand the light be,
but the darkness covers my faults.
In each lie is a truth beyond,
And as I watched My Father stepped onto Heaven's shore,
Loved Ones from his life and past gathered around him,
With words of Welcome was he received.
The glory of life consumed him, smiling.
I love my father and you.
