Can you feel it?

“The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.” 
― Gloria Steinem


A wound, deep
Jagged edge, blunt force
Stab me with your actions
Console me with words

Hiding? From what? 
Me? Yourself? The world, perhaps.

Time can heal, time can allow a wound to fester.
Time... is this and that
Can you feel it? Time...
It creeps in all around you
Consumes you.

What are you waiting for? 
Time is not waiting for you..
Time can heal, time can allow a wound to fester.

Truth, freedom, honesty
Words of the positive
Words that simultaneously hold a life in it's claws
Honesty spits out the truth that turns imprisonment into freedom

Freedom can heal, freedom can break your heart.
Freedom... is this and that
Can you feel it? Freedom...
It suffocates you to the point of breathing
Are you free?
