justagirl writes:: " Out spills the truth that has been locked away in a deep place.
Held in for many years, then one toxic night one more lie and they all spill over.
I can feel them, crawling from dark spaces,
Out of my stomach, out of my heart they slither and bubble their way into my throat.
I choke on them and try to swallow them down,
But there are too many and they start seeping through my tears.
Everyone knows you can see the truth in one’s eyes.
So I gather my courage and I let my soul speak truth.
They flow out as easily as the tears,
And a burden is lifted off my rib cage, the pressure behind my forehead lessens.
Once all the secrets are out I am vulnerable once again.
The world is cruel, and the people are crueler.
Am I ready for this?
Will I ever be ready?
I am naked without my shield of convoluted deceptions.
They say this new freedom will be a good thing,
…that I will once again fit into ‘society’.
But who are they to know?
After all, they were the ones who locked me in this prison.
