Lies Told: Truths Unfold

By Edvelyn Lee

The truth is it never goes away 

yet I pray for it to evaporate 

In any form it takes as tears 

plays as constant reminders

It is an infected wound 

and there are mutating cells

Palpitating heart knowingly grows a friend

or foe

I may be limping now 

and smile like a father accepting your sins 

I will be immobilised soon 

and face the guilt of a liar

I could never forgive

Incapable and unfairness held hands together 

Here they birth an angry daughter 

Mirror or Museum 

Both are true in our music 

Tunes told truth in acoustics 

so, the reality is

it'll come back equally violent as that day

and all I can pray is to disappear with it all day
