  Keepertells : Historian of the Mind

Told Wrong

Keepertells said Nov 4, 9:29 PM:

 

I've done it so often,
It's become so hard to tell,
Am I speaking truth?
Or just plain lies?

I know what you want to hear,
I know how to make it so clear,
It's just a question,
How much can my soul bear?

It's weighing me down,
Tethered to my heart,
Cement filling me up,
Will it be enough once I'm crushed?

All I really want is truth,
To nurture it and grow,
So why do you anger?
Why do you burn?

What's with the shoving?
Placing false lullabies,
Housing them within my lungs,
Why is it not enough?

I'm crying and dieing,
Seems you just don't care,
Why can't you understand?
These lies are eating me away inside.

You're angry now,
Getting ready for a roast,
You've split me open,
Making a toast.

I'm yelling and screaming,
Kicking and shaking,
Holding on,
Hands wrapped around my heart.

You're draining me,
Can't you see?
So why do your eyes glow with such glee?
You are hurting me.

I'm holding onto the truth,
Is that why I am standing alone?
I can wait,
But when you arrive will I still be here?
