Teared Truth

Truth finally seen

staring me in the face

the eyes

bald face lies

I told myself.

I mean so little

you cannot even say hello

yet sit here I do

waiting on you…..

Tears

slither

silent drops

aching

brutal gnawing

black hole deep within.

No I am not perfect

no I am not the best

I am not even a catch

(chuckle chuckle)

what I am is real

what I am is truth

what I am…..

a lost chance

a misplaced dream

an unspoken wish

spooling away

leaving you a lonely future

while I dance with many.

It does boggle

my mind that is

to cast away one such as I

I ask for nothing

asked for nothing

nothing at all…..

nothing is what I got

except tear falls.
