Truth

I spoke my truth, you still shamed me

I was wide open, and you still judged me

You said this is the way, I say I’m still lost

I exposed the wounds, you threw salt on them

My truth may be ugly, but it does not need to be belittled

by you or anyone for that matter

That was then, this is now.

I spoke my truth, now I’m moving on and up the life ladder!
