Writing is Math
If what was meant to be
Never came
Would you write it down?
Or erase the idea?
~
Being cut shorter
Blindfolded in the dark
Running through wet streets
With nothing left to discover
~
And all the while a child will shudder
At the fallacy that surrounds them
And a mask is finally shattered
To reveal the cracked face underneath

This has brought a smile to my face. It reminds me of how we peel back layers of ourselves when we devote ourselves to writing.

If what was meant to be
never came,
I would still write it down,
Wrenching it out of my mind
once and forever......
Cracks can heal over time ..... as long as the masks are shattered, that's what matters.
Onion Knight, this was dark, disturbing and deep, and very well written.
