i finally understand
the ways of the world
and in knowing
the truth hurts

as i throw
rocks, pebbles,and gravel
kicking sand with dirt

living in a world
among hidden truths
revealing itself
would serve no use

the problem exists
within our youth
and no one can see
except for me
that knowledge
is the master key

yes, we're blessed by GOD
with wisdom to
come to understand
the ways of the world
and in knowing
the truth hurts
making us throw rocks,
pebbles, and gravel
kicking sand with dirt

I does anger us to realize TRUTH. It doesn't always feel good to know, and thus be 'known'.

Thank you for this.

Yes, the truth, the hard unadulterated facts, can hurt like.....had to bring this one back, masterfully posed.
