How shall one describe the Truth?
It is more sensible to depict a phantom,
As being a notion of form
Through our eyes.
Subsequently, it is easier to say
That no one can tell us the Truth.
The world as we perceive it
Is our own reality.
Therefore, the Truth
Can be anything.

The author's comments:
I made truth as a proper noun because I'm not talking about the truth, as in you are telling the truth about eating breakfast before the day begins. I'm talking about the Truth, as in life's truth.
