truth silenced in the confessional
rumor of prayer
rumor of mercy
she does not speak of nightmares
instead
she paints the sky
truth established in tradition
rumor of meandering boundaries
rumor of desiccated trust
she does not speak of crossed lines
instead
she watches eagles fly
truth scorched in layers of disbelief
rumor of auspicious intentions
rumor of betrayal
she does not speak of disappointment
instead
she calms my storm

“Truth silenced in the confessional” hooked me in and didn’t let me go until the end. Powerful.
Peace,

Truth vs. Rumor. I love this. Enjoyed the alternating stanzas. This line struck me: “truth scorched in layers of disbelief”. Thank you. xoA
