Truth (Simile)
Truth is like a bar of soap
Cleaning, scrubbing, until your skin is raw.
It clears you of all the silly notions
That may have been caked on
During some loving relationship.
As the stained water
Goes down the drain,
You are surprised to see
The dirt and filth
That you hadn’t noticed before.
Yet, for many,
This soap may cause some irritation,
For although you’ve been cleansed
Of all ignorance,
The soap was too strong,
Causing uncomfortable chafing.
Love (Metaphor)
Love is a cow,
Born into this world
With so much promise
And so much potential.
Let to graze in an overly green pasture,
This cow provides milk,
Plentiful milk,
Sweet and wholesome.
As the cow continues to feast
Upon the bounty laid before it,
It stands around,
Defiling the pasture with it’s
Steaming cow pies.
As time goes on,
The milk is taken against its will,
And just as the cow
Is sickly, its ribs
Sticking out through its leathery skin,
This cow has become obsolete
And is soon served to you
As ground beef.
