Him

The Lie

By Jodie McMahon-JosephPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

Hands fused to wheel knuckles stretched and white.

Big sky behind left filled with fright.

Rage and shame sit side by side.

My mind reeling this time.

Why does it matter?

Shame screams rage dies.

Solitude.

Reclaim.

Cry.
