BITTER TRUTHS

The beasts of rage engulf me
as I struggle with his disguise.
I search for my lost love
concealed within his eyes.

He rips my heart from me,
oblivious to my pain~
The sunshine of my life. . .
transformed to icy rain.

For who stares back at me
is a stranger I don't know. . .
One day he'll kill my love
with a final striking blow.

These seeds of anger spring
from the endless tears I've cried.
Someday I'll face the truth~
the man I loved has died. . .
