Truth

I lost sensation where the madness would swell. Swirling softly with the petals of time. In a wind very cold and I could tell It would strengthen with every breath of mine. I called for my voice and I summoned these thoughts. With shaking hands I untangled the knots And between my fingers slipped the ribbons of truth
