lies vs truths

In my world of lies

You were my only constant

Standing by my side like a pillar of truth

Telling me that I wasn't a freak

That I am loved

That it's ok to be different

But then you left

And I was again alone

Forced to fend for myself against the darkness

Against the lies

I stumbled along

Groping restlessly in the dark for a hand to hold

For your hand to hold

Then the voices began speaking to me

And I starting thinking

What if the voices didn't speak in lies

But in truth?

What if you were the lier?

What if I was a freak and unloved?

For months these thoughts drifted in my mind

Taking over as I slowly withered away

Darkness and lies and truth and pain consumed me

And I was swallowed whole
