Oh boy how i wish i could just go back to being ignorant <br />Atleast then i'd be happy <br />They say it is bliss, ignorance <br />The veil has been lifted off my face and i can see clearly <br />My body shadders and my stomach shrivels <br />I don't like what i see, it makes me sad, angry and scared <br />Did i not see this coming? how could that be? <br />It underlines every part of my being <br />I try to shake it off <br />I rub my eyes repeatedly hoping that it will dissapear <br />My head spins and i feel sick to my stomach <br />I vomit all the lies i'd fed myself <br />The lies that had nourished my soul <br />Finally the truth manifests <br />The truth sinks in and it tastes like acid to my mouth and is as hard as Stone to my stomach, <br />It sobers me up from the lies that had me drunk <br />Finally the truth sinks in and everything falls into place <br /> <br />Elizabeth Jacqueline Mpanga<br /><br />Elizabeth Jacqueline Mpanga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-truth-finally-sinks-in/
