Truth

By Gareth

Without the truth,
Every word that we speak,
All the glory of our language,
Every ounce of our meaning,
Is lost.

Without the truth,
Words are just noise,
A babble of lies,
A veritable auditory miasma.

Truth is to meaning,
What air is to life.
For without the one,
The other cannot be.

Maybe:

For without the one,
The other cannot be.
