Hiding behind Shame

SHAME

seeking truth?
Watch out for Shame.
With Shame present,
there is no truth,
only illusion.
Shame hides truth
As the magician cloaks his trick
To create the lie
we don't know as a lie.
When Shame is gone,
the illusion is revealed.
When Shame is gone,
the truth comes out.

Unlocking the chains of shame is simple
ASK
Abracadabra!!
Shame released!!
Chains fall away
truth is revealed.
It takes the courage
to ask for truth,
Any truth.
painful or joyful

What are some things you are ashamed of, what are you holding shame around?
