The Truth

the truth
is painful,
the truth
will bring me pain.

the truth
hides inside,
a heavy rock
I carry
inside my heart,
making me
slower.

I know i
need to throw it
out,
admit
the truth,
the truth i have no
problem
admitting to
myself,
but not to you
or anyone else.

yet I know
the consequences,
and they are painful
and full of tears,
endless tears.

I know what
I need to
do, but
it is so terrifying.
