it is not the darkness
perhaps the light
too much light
that blinds the eyes
of the persistent
it is not the series of lies
they make you cope up
make you live some more
without fear
what scares you?
it is the truth
the face beneath that mask
something
for all those years
remaining
unacceptable
so what scares you?
it is the rejection, the unacceptability
what can i say?
you are wrong for these are these that we cannot change
cannot get rid of
at the end
hell is other people i agree
i am what i am
i accept what i am
in my solitude i am king
alone i am happier
