Veritas in Caritate

Would you tread on the toes of loyalty
if they blocked the path to sincerity?
Would you still treat the loved like royalty
if they acted with barbarity?

And if a friend insulted another
would you step back to let them clear the air
or would you treat them both as a brother
and step in swiftly to fix disrepair?

If the trusted lost your confidence
could you still meet their deceitful eyes
or would you fail to see past the arrogance
that had unblinkingly told those lies.

The tell tale test of a true affection
is to still love past an imperfection.
