The Truth

The truth
By Bettie Avery · Sunday, November 13, 2011
I have so many feelings inside
Some are easy to hide
In the middle of the night
The truth becomes my only sight
It's in my dreams while I sleep
In the reflection of a river so deep
It's in my nightmares too
Falling into a shark infested ocean of blue
The world can be crazy
But i wont let it break me
