The Truth

The truth isn't always honey nor gold
Sometimes it's not sweet, even dark and bitter
But just like pure cocoa or coffee
It's also have some deep rich flavor that people seeked for
*
The truth sometimes hurts
Just like a slap that wakes us up
From a sweet dream into a harsh reality
But see, it's better to know something than nothing
It's like opening our eyes to see and stay alert of any danger
*
The truth sometimes hard to accept
Just like a pandora box we don't ready yet to open
But believe me, it's better to know soon than later
So we know there's more outside our comfortable couches
Take the hand of the truth as your best friend
And you'll be safely guided till the end
