Veritas
My brother once told me that the truth shall set you free. I tend to subscribe to the Classical stance that the truth will make you realize that you are a mother-fucker and father-slayer and force you to gouge out your eyes as you head off into exile. So here as my ideas about truth:
Truth is waking up in the morning and realizing that you've wasted half your life.
Truth is knowing that the universe with go on after you pass and that, at some point, no one will care about your existence.
Truth is driving 30mph on the expressway.
Truth is two squirels chasing each other up a pine tree.
Truth is that pain in your back that might become something evil.
Truth is the feeling you get with you stumble while walking down the sidewalk.
Truth is the quiver in your voice when the person you love is leaving you.
Truth is that hour between dusk and dawn when the world has yet to invent itself.
Truth is a baby's grip of your pinky.
Truth is the connection between the last sentence in a book with the first.
Truth is that beat to "Just Like Heaven" that will never leave your head.
Truth is the pause you take to urinate during a movie.
Truth is knowing that the people that love you haven't always done so and might not in the future.
