Truth Untold

Posted on 19th Jun 2020 by rohit kumar

My pain and misery fall from the sky

So hard I try to ignore it, but it still gets by.

Surrounded by memories of what could have been,

The hatred screams under my skin.

Pulsing through my veins is the anger I feel.

Wounds break open as soon as they seal.

Darkness surrounds me with every step I take.

I manage a smile, but do you know it's a fake?

I laugh when people talk to me,

But inside I'm dying, wishing they could see

I'm as different inside as I am the same.

I wish they could see they're not to blame.

I know the truth, but it's locked in my heart,

And now more than ever, it's tearing me apart.
