Literature Text

it whispers small realities
in the quiet pauses for breath
you take every time you lie

it crawls out from the noisy
raspy sound of heartbeats
speeding up to match
the falseness of your words

it's the message read
in between the lines
and all along the margins
that your unblinking eyes
refuse to be able to see

it runs it's dirty claws
along the bottom of  your soul
digging up insecurities
and doubt and vulnerability

and it leaves you in a crumbled heat
alone on your bathroom floor
disturbed by the pain of truth
:iconthewrittenrevolution: Does it get the message across well? And does the imagery make sense?
