Truth or lies poem

truth or lies I’m standing in

they resonate beneath my skin.

I’ve known my doubt,

I’m filled with fear.

it rings in me from ear to ear.

From my toes to my head I feel like I’m drowning.

Yet I stand in You.

You have me surrounded in Your Light and Your Glory and Your Joy tries to reach me.

Your peace feels just out of reach, Beyond the clouds of haze and confusion.

The fear, I know not from where, that fills me to the roots of my hair

paralyzed to move,

afraid to make a sound,

to move will make it worse.

Indecision abounds.

Lies and truth poem

I’m still going through that valley of addiction.

I can’t yet say I’m fully free,

but I see the path. I See the Light.

///

I see the lies and truth

I heard some truth growing up,

but I also heard a lot of lies.

like the lie that “pornography is normal”;

that “pornography is healthy”

that’s a lie.

“pornography is good for exploring”

that’s another line.

stripping away the lies isn’t

the same as choosing to believe truth.
