I'm WrongA Poem by LaurenKangas
LIES...
she tells as if they're her story as if the truth is an inconvenience to her as if the crystal words sting her tongue as if they linger. FACTS... she thinks of as unknown territory as if she has no knowledge of a glass concept as if she can't admit the right to herself as if she has no comprehension of a familiar phrase as if its something unkept, unclean. HIDING... she will if that's al there is left as if the words she puts together are her concrete curtain as if they protect her from what is really within as if she were alice; through the looking glass- broken as if she can escape the pain. LIGHT... she has not seen for a while as if it burns through her transparent sheets as if a willing bask is too much to bare as if she can't bring herself to the realization of good as if it is an unwelcome friend, an uncanny surprise back again TIME... she watches tick away behind her shattered looking glass as if it were a trick, an illusion as if it wasn't real enough to deserve a turned head as if the seconds wasted away didn't mean a thing as if everything was chaos...anarchy. BREAKING... she will when she grows and matures as everyone young shall do as if she's the exception, the loophole, the rule as if she is unable to confront what is behind the glass as if she is convinced her fate has decided to spare her as if she's the special, the only, the one. HER... Facade will collapse and bring forth what is buried. Being one with what has been spoken as past comes in sly. Until she's engulfed; drowned by the pieces and chips cutting away at her last lonely breath. the LIES told and FACTS neglected, HIDING from the truthful LIGHT; only TIME before her front will be BREAKING. Just two simple words can set her free at last.
