The Truth


Look into me

This is the truth

This is my truth

Beautiful words to express my youth

The words are dripping from my lips

Just one thing that I would wish

Leave it be

This is the truth 

This is my truth

Who are you to decide what it comes to?

Scream out but you're not there

I shout but they just stare 

Tell me what you see

This is the truth

This is my truth

I turn to these beautiful words

Suddenly no longer so disturbed

My truth is felt

My truth is heard
