The Truth I Hide

by Aisha Jamshed

The truth I hide, inside my heart My heart says: "It's a lie". The truth that has lost, in me, in my heart, & in my mind. The faded gaze, which I carry, Is not enough to find, The truth I hide. The truth I hide, is blunt. Hidden under the mud, lost under the gravel. The truth that hidden in me, it was a lie. For my heart. But, listen my dear heart: "Your lies can't engross me anymore" Because the brutal smile, which I carry, is now enough to find, The Truth I Hide.
