revelation

 

As I slowly move from wounded woman to concerned human

I see something in him that I was blind to before

how serious of a problem this really is

and that he is so blind he cannot see

that this has taken over his life

has become an obsession

now I see and now I understand

why

this man cannot hear or see or speak

 

his show, his roles, they give him what he needs

an outlet, his vent, his lover

all rolled into one

it satisfies him

it is

his child

his brainchild

his daughter

dark daughter

dark eyes

and

I

whisper

softly

my

dear

that

chil

I heard him today

and heard him lie

yes lie

taking these roles to new levels

or perhaps this has been going on all along

but he has become these people

they are real to him

but what he does not see

is that he is lying

 

I heard the woman from a devastated place

you lied and said you were from there and I heard her voice light up

in some kind of connection, an excitement, she even chose you because

you were "close to home"

 

you hurt when you lie

even if people don't know

 

 

this makes me question

in what ways have you lied to me

how have you been dishonest to me

what is truth and what is fiction

 

 

I risk all future connections with you

it doesn't matter anymore

I see now why

we have been thrown together

 

I knew in the beginning that

"this is part of your service to Me"

and

"you will vindicate Me unto him"

 

however

I thought these things were fleeting

temporary

not a battle for real

 

now I see

my purpose in your play

it was to be the one to say

enough

and be the one who is brave enough

to speak truth to you

and say

your life is passing you by

this is not your child

you are feeding on filth

and helping it to spread

going against everything your high-minded prose seems to be about

 

you want to see a change in this world

then step away from the dirt

open your eyes and see what is clean and what is filthy

stop lying

walk in truth

 

 

the mystery is complete

my questions answered tonight

as I heard your voice

and heard your lie

 

now I see

you are so lost in this

you have no NEED of me

you don't need what a woman offers

because you are feeding off of this creation, this child

and the show won't end until something breaks in

but nothing can break in until the show ends

 

you are in a trap

I cannot change your situation

but I can open my mouth

and speak truth

 

at the risk of you hating me even more

it matters not

you need to hear these things

 

unhealthy

obsession

addiction

deceit

 

 

walk away

delete

take a trip

think

drink

lie back

sleep

dream

pray

sleep

think

 

 

 

come back and

reinvent

ask, seek, search for your true path

 

it's there, waiting for you

Wow, very flowing story. Makes me wonder if it is related to the one I read, or if its about god. It's good, i like the openess of this story/poem thing :) Great work!
