A lie
Requires
intention
A
deliberate attempt to deceive
Yet there
was none
No
deliberate intention
A fearful
youth
Convinced by
herculean strength alone
He could
bar the gates of his being
Deluded that
with Samson’s strength
Could grind
his passions small
The youth
lied to himself
His was the
deliberate attempt
To deceive
himself
An
inconvenient truth
He lived
his false impression
His
intentions four ring bound
Gave
meaning to his struggle
Not to
mislead
Yet still
despite intention
Herculean
strength bowed and buckled
Always an internal struggle. Facing the truth can sometimes be a lifetime's journey. :-)
