Which Way is Better?
Why do I keep lying to you?
Why do I keep lying to myself?
Magnifying my own infliction on a shelf
I wait for the right to time
So that my ignorance doesn’t become my subsiding crime
But I feel that I can’t take this anymore
When all is unsaid and everything is done
What if when all is said it is undone?
I don’t want to be crawling here asking you not to run
But by the swiftness of life
And the seconds that each bring periling knifes
Which is better to have in the core?
The thought of knowing you never truly found out
Or the truth of what has always been throughout
