Deception Only Leads to Truth
Evil has a limited purpose
As its appearances fail
Authenticity becomes clear
Its company does not quite look the same
Its only positive is to magnify
What Authentic Good truly is
Evil has no original thoughts
It only takes pages from Good
And uses them to construct appearances
So that those attracted to Good
Will become aligned with Evil instead
But if you hold tight to Good in spite of it all
You will better learn what Authentic Good truly is
Evil can only use Good as a cover to deceive
Evil is based on Fear
And Fear has no part in Good
Fear can only use Love as a cover to deceive
Fear is the basis of Evil
And Fear has no part in Love
Deception only leads to truth
Fear is often defined as anxiety or panic or dread
But Fear is more of a wound
Where something felt so wrong
So unjust that it could not be overcome
And so one joined with it
Perceiving the power of pain
Was greater than the power of Love
Perceiving that hopelessness to be healed
Was greater than the power of Love
And so we often do
But perhaps do not label within ourselves
We do not want to admit hopelessness
For that is far too vulnerable
We do not want to admit the intensity of pain
For that is far too weak
But authenticity can be a paradox
Where once you admit to yourself your weakness
You somehow find a strength you never saw
And you learn that your weakness was not the problem
It was always the lies of Fear
Fear enjoys the game
Of telling us that one weakness
Is universal failures
But one weakness is one weakness
And your multitude of strengths
Remains your multitude of strengths
Fear has no original thoughts
Except to convince you of what you are not
You are not what happened to you
You are the person who overcomes it
With love and peace and compassion
Not just for others
But for yourself as well.
You’ve got this!
