Just Children

inside us all lives truth
and inside that truth lives
a lying little boy who is
so clever sometimes that
he cleverly deceives himself
into sharing the truth that
he so cleverly tried to hide;
yet, inside the deception is
 a selfish little girl who is
so selfish that she no longer
likes herself and sharing, so
she squanders away the truth
that the little boy overlooks
in her own mental vanity,
waiting for a time to discard;
neither child has ever met
the other and no one knows
what will happen inside
if and when they do and
truth is concealed in pretty
little thoughts that dance
the minuet on paydays
when eyes see nothing else.
