Hesitation of Truths.

Poem

Alas, I’ve opened the hesitant messages of truth, Superglued concern of those beside me, who rest their weary head onto my heart, as if we are synchronized rhythms of a marching band, We were fused together, yet feeling it necessary to cut the faulty chord of electricity, our love, To him, Pandora’s box was unleashed, I was the epitome of evil, lurking amongst the rose bushes, and unbeknownst to him, has stinging thorns, I was never truly connected, I felt as a propped replication of the male gaze he idealized of what he desired onto me, I’m free, but freedom costs, The descent of loneliness and trust, But I must follow in Sappho’s footsteps, For I cannot weave with my unauthentic strides alongside a man I’ve never loved.
