Be Silent ~ Be True ~ Just Be

Vestiges of a manifest self,
     Long forgotten,
Writes words
     Better left
          Unsaid.
 
Some truths are better left untold,
     Or risk obscuring the true
          That cannot be told.
 
True is an act of being
     Not telling.
 
So I remind the vestigial self,
     “Be silent.”
 
Be silent
     Be true
          Just be.
