Honesty Hidden By Storm.

Leave the pieces,
When you go,
I'll glue them back,
And no one will know.

I've had a lot of bruises,
But this is more than that,
It's a scar,
That may never heal.

Those words I said,
I can't take them back,
For the first time in my life,
I wasn't afraid of honesty.

There was so much sitting anger,
I couldn't hold myself back,
Those words you said,
The ones meant to hurt,
Pelted like the softest rain,
But eventually they seeped into my skin.

I didn't cry,
I haven't yet,
My tears go to other things,
But I do have regret.

It's the tiniest flash,
The smallest pang,
I may have too much pride,
Maybe I hold my head too high.

I'm so weak,
But I won't back down,
I don't think it would help,
Not now anyways.

Thoughts are going to thunder,
Memories will flash like lightening,
I won't take cover,
I'll handle this endless rain.

I may never see the sun again,
The dark clouds will always hover,
But I'm not going to complain,
I'm done tempting fate,
I'm done changing what is into what was.

For sure I'll miss the light,
The days we'd lay in the grass,
But I can't turn around now,
I've followed my pride too far.

Maybe I'll have another high,
Another peak,
Another honest moment,
Until then,
I'll lie just to get through.
