I was Here.: Weight of the truth.

Monday, April 4, 2011

Shrinking behind shielding walls,

Sinking beneath the riveting waves,

I try to swim, I try to breath,

But I'm drained off all the lies inside,

Crushed beneath the weight of the truth.

Cringing, seeing every fall,

Gasping at the sight of tears,

I try to think, I try to see,

But I'm washed off all the thoughts inside,

Crushed beneath the weight of the truth.

The weight of the truth.

Crushed.

Beneath the weight of the truth.

I see the dawn, another day,

I look to the heavens, in numbing plight,

I've reason to smile, reason to laugh,

Amidst these resounding cries -

I'm crushed beneath the weight of the truth.

I was Here.
