Painful Truth

Painful Truth

I am painful truth

My tongue knows no couth

Spewing sharp phrase

Cutting through the haze

I hold privileged sin

Along with my kin

Scared silence

Repeated violence

I am pure love

Touched only by a glove

Body the crime scene

Who could be so mean

I am exotic erotic

Mostly psychotic

A relic of the past

Who likes to live fast

I am emotionally wrecked

Every time we necked

Childish hickeys abound

Tasteless lust found

I am living dream

Nightmarish so to seem

Drowning in universal passion

Continually emotionally crashin’

I am tragic beauty

Without the right to be snooty

Suspected stereotype

Seductive hype

I am legend living

Eternally giving

Naturally driven to thrive

Never meant to survive

I am Stamina unshaken

Always accused of fakin’

Healing generational trauma

Always the center of some drama

I am painful truth

Once known as Ruth

Unable to live a lie

I refuse to try

Kneeling

For that healing

Praying

for mindful fraying

Building a new Hope

The only way to Cope

Actualized being

Fearless freeing
