I am floating in a lush green sea of lies
Every ripple enhancing the last lie
Restrengthening the doubt, reviving the truth,
The unknown
I thread lightly, silently
Playing my part diligently, unquestionably
i don't show what i feel
maybe it's cuz i won't, maybe i just don't know how to
the watery lies are cold and unforgiving
Strict and noncommittal, its weeds curve around me
like a cobra coiling around a thick rat
It does not squeeze me,
yet it does not allow me to breathe
Pulling my mind deeper and deeper into an abyss,
I don't know how to struggle.
Acceptance...some would call it
I call it loss...
Uninvited, i am pushed down under
Restricted and confused, I am forced to see
Truth
What I've known all along surfaces
Truth
Where he goes after he leaves us,
Truth
What happens behind closed doors,
Truth
The big hole sitting fat with satisfaction in the middle of the living room,
Truth
what mom does when she thinks no-one's looking
Truth
What i feel
Truth
Confusion
Truth
...Emptiness...
The weeds cutting through my skin slowly recoil
I am allowed to look away
But i'm not allowed to escape.
The lies slice me,
Licking happily at my wounds,
Exposing me,
I am not allowed to react...
But what hurts the most
What really kills me,
Is that when the lies leave me,
I'm allowed to breathe
