my allegory in the cave

I was kept in the dark for so long
I had no idea he was feeding those same lies
To other girls

Once I took myself out of his life,
I saw the ugly truth.

I was just another girl he toyed with.

Every time we were apart,
I learned more and more about him.

But when he came back it was like
I had lost everything I learned.

But now I'm done with you.

No more mind games,
No more second guessing,
No more confusion.

I stepped into the light,
And thats where I'm staying.

Dead on- it's hard to differentiate between the liars and the snags and the posers. Few see the transparency. -Nikkie Rae

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
