Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.  ~ Mahatma Gandhi

Tonight I sleep with a heavy heart
So many thoughts –
but where do I start?

He said, they said,
but who knows the truth?

The lens you look through
shows what you’ll see.
What did I witness?
It cannot be!

He said, they said,
but who knows the truth?

The pattern repeats. When will we learn?
Too many years for peace we do yearn.

He said, they said,
but who knows the truth?

Where are the adults to lead the way?
Standing in silence – nothing to say.

He said, they said,
but who knows the truth?

Is this the reason for all the rain?
Tears from heaven revealing God’s pain?

He said, they said,
but who knows the truth?

We may never get too the real truth,
Stand on conviction, and fail our youth.

He said, they said,
but who knows the truth?
