Poem Title:
Poem
She wept softly at what her life had become in her mouth held silently chained still and unused sat her tongue. Truth stared into her eyes and said what do you want me to do? Let me tell you a story and I'll ask again when I'm through. I've known you for a while now and I've been waiting for your call. It was when you cried out for a rescue that your chains began to fall Sitting silent and in this cell, with her head down and eyes half closed She decided she needed to look again and see the way Truth glowed. She lifted up her head and tried to focus her eyes Suddenly she saw Truth above all the mountain of lies. She wasn't all alone as she had thought before The truth had been there waiting for her like an open door. All the years of lies ran – she heard them shrieking down the hall The more she focused on the Truth, the more the lies got small. The chains began to break, their hold could be no more For Truth had it's vengeance and higher was his score. She shifted on the bed as the tears continued to flow. She thanked God for her freedom from the undertow. Finally she made it to where she wanted to be Finally, yes finally, she was free.
