Just a thought I had after reading a debate on truth
UNIVERSAL TRUTH



Would I lie to you?
Truthfully, no.
Nor would I tell you what I know to be true.
That much is known.

Truth lies within the beholder,
No truth is shared between all.
What is capture in your eyes is blinding,
For other souls feel false.

A force of one
Is destructive upon many.
When all voices are lifted
It drowns a solitude vision.

Salvation within itself,
Manifest through independence.
Collectedness by cohesion
Is division from reason.

Would I lie to you?
Truthfully, yes.
For the truth of self is never universal
That much is known.
