Isn't it
funny how the truth comes to light
Through pent
up anger that is put on paper
Words
expressed to spark flames of a fight
You will pack
so much emotion in one phrase to be right
Misdirected
by your misguided anger
And wrong
conclusions you keep in your sight
Every
difference and contradiction that they might
Replace what
is goodness and true and sincere
Hiding behind
the curtain that has in turn shed new light
Refusing to
believe that the words would take flight
Despite
closing the door thinking it would be better
While the
darkness still blinds you to see what is right
Still holding
fast to the lies you grasp day and night
Crushing your
spirit one more time and more vaster
But still
standing tall on the ledge of your height
That paper,
it's burning my heart not from fright
But of the
sadness in you now and I hope not forever
That will
keep you standing alone in your plight
Until it is
thrown away like this friendship overnight
