Truths and lies have now made me numb, <br />Even tears of mine do not know why they rain. <br /> <br />The truth hits me as it comes, <br />Shatters darkness as it sprinkles light. <br />Then the lie comes and slaps me, <br />Slaps me into darkness; <br />Suffocating what I seek to feel. <br /> <br />Uncertainty has left me to shiver, <br />Shiver in my own crowded mind. <br />The lie has made my tears evaporate, <br />Then condense into poison <br />Poison that drives down my face <br />And pierces my conscience. <br /> <br />Oh my conscience <br />Where have you gone? <br />I need you. <br />You are the reason I stand. <br />Without you my reality is a lie. <br />Please come back to me. <br />Without you my emotions won’t survive.<br /><br />Mehreen Mujeeb<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-need-you-63/
