Truth Hurts, You Don't Know How Much

Even if you're not ready to let go, you have to face reality and know the truth; no matter how much it may hurt.

 

Truth Hurts; You Don’t Know How Much

I look down,

And I see myself.

I wondered how it’s possible.

I forgot once something catches my eyes.

I’m laying in something;

Something staining the blanket of snow around me.

I move closer,

Till I’m standing by my side.

The stuff is leaking, crawling towards me.

I scurried away,

Not wanting to be in it.

I look more closely;

The stuff is coming from my head.

The stuff is crimson.

Just as the sirens blare in the distance,

I realize what it is.

Blood, my blood!

The ambulance shows up at the driveway,

And doctors come rushing up.

What made me realize what had happened,

Was when they ran right threw me.

My body was lying before my eyes;

Realization hits me harder than a two by four.

Truth hurts;

You don’t know how much.

As the doctors took my body away,

A light shone in the distance to my right.

I turned my head;

And before heading over toward it,

I look back at my home.

I took one last glance at the ice covered stairs;

The same stairs that were my deadly mistake.

I didn’t realize,

Just how much the truth hurt.
