Illusion of Gold
The counterfeit gleams, but never for long,
Its shimmer fades with a hollow song.
It tricks the eye, but the heart will know,
That truth, like sunlight, will always grow.
A throne of lies may rise and stand,
Built by deceit, and a thief's hand.
But history's brush, with time's swift stroke,
Turns every illusion to mere smoke.
For counterfeiters never win,
They hide behind the masks of sin.
But shadows fall, and falsehoods break,
When honesty claims what fraud would take.
So let them print, inflate, and feign,
Their victory brief, their effort vain.
For the world spins on, and what is real,
Will always rise, while they must kneel.
