Unwelcomed Truths

Where to start When will words Fall Fall out Darkest before dawn But when will dawn finally appear After darkness has become so near After closest companion were Demons Dogs Dark dreams That haunts Tears to fond a friend Of little girl nearing end Every turn Seems to take Break Break Break She ruined it all Just before the fall So long without a stroke In lost moment tightrope Broke Broken broken Where to stand On shards of glass Reflections of within Jeering at their won sin Never it was a matter Of mental To physical To better To soothe To heal Brokenness within But sick dependence On thrill of concealing The truth behind The starry ceiling Plastered perfectly With cracks leaking behind No one saw True fiend Inside In dreams she escapes But turning to nightmares It soon becomes Sleeping a fear So close to her heart Rabid dogs On slow paced heels Biting Attacking Killing all "reals" Anger mounting Caused by faces She once trusted Betrayal of her being She starts shouting Anger so vile Anger so cruel Where will it lead her too? Noose tightly slipped Around terrified neck Will she be forgiven For this final step? Awaken suddenly Lungs still fighting to breathe It was merely but a dream But then it seems Pulled into another Horrid seamless dream One that reigns With far to many Unwelcome truths One of histories passed Of hurting Destroying What once was The endless search for perfection So lost So futile So torn within Ideals Set high above What she feels When will cracks Break apart When carefully placed blocks Fall Fall off When will they stare into Her cold eyes And realise Her light has long since died
