Truth Hurts

Truth Hurts

Feels like the walls are closing in around me even when I can see the open sky
That image in the distance just seems to get further and further away from me
That open book now seems like it missing some important pages and I know why
The truth was told to me and I thought I could accept it but now I do not know how.

A space inside myself that I was a fool to think I could fill
Clinging to something that was lost to me, a long time ago
An odd comfort in one way but an aching heart in another
Even closing my eyes seems to bring no peace to me at this moment

My actions need to be controlled better, even if it is so easy to slip into old times
Riding out this journey sat here in this seat until the bitter end
Learning again and again but never able to accept the real truth
One day I may realize everything and find a new perspective to carry on

But until that time I live in this world of my creation knowing the truth hurts
