Truth Ain't
By: Joi Maree Flowers
It's hard to look in the mirror wearing shades
Vision tinted from seeing the truth of what is
The one whom you purposely choose to ignore
Denial being the crutch
Supported by lies
Co-signed by fans
Increased by pride
The you
Camouflaged by
Make-up
And
Suppose-to-be
A fantasy painted by
Society
Is the you
You prefer
Thus the truth of your revelation
Is never known
To others
Nor yourself
Until those shades away are thrown
