Nightmares
Up

 

 

When nightmares become reality

you finally understand the situation.

When the lies and self-delusions

are violently stripped away.

Leaving the base whitened bones

of once carefully avoided truth.

It is so painful when you realize

that what you were taught to believe

by societies icons of family, church, and state.

Were carefully taught myths

to keep you pacified and content to not

ask questions that should have been asked long ago.

Now what do you do without the comfort

of candycoated delusion

and life looksyou in the face?
