Truth Missed in the Flood

Both what I’m saying and how I’m looking confuse you

And that’s just what I want,

But remember that this is a smokescreen never to be dismissed.

Better to keep the fear all inside where no one else can see

Little by little I’ll let it out though no one will know but me

Especially as I spill it out with nonsensical words.

 

Deeds, not words shall speak me.

John Fletcher

 

A moment is gone

Can’t take back what wasn’t done.

There is more to life than what you hear

I handle more than I can bear.

Only my choices will make me who I am

Not going to live on the lam.

 

Partially inspired by a random moment in my life and the rest by the Shade and Light Challenge for the first Monday of the month.
