The truth about us

Lying awake
As all the others sleep
The world sleeps through
My thoughts-
I thought they were so loud
They wake me up
Keep me from sleeping sin away
From living up to
That damn cliché
“Innocence is bliss”
I want that
To be able to look past
The realities
The pain
And the death
Of innocence
There is none
Just a bunch of deceiving
And manipulating
The lies, they blind them
They blind us
We pretend to be God’s children
God would have forsaken us by now
We have failed him
He failed us
Those who believe
And those who don’t
Either way it doesn’t matter
Because only I lay here
Knowing the truth about us…

Nice one here Star. I liked this one a lot. Good luck with everything.


I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
