Realistic

As I lay down my troubles 
I realize their true intentions; 
to stop and reevaluate 
my current situation. 

I peel the burdening weight 
constraining me, 
and discover 
all those subtle layers 
became unbearable with time. 

The day I finally recognize this, 
I shed those years 
of falsehoods, pain and resentment. 

And no one seems to understand 
why I’m so free 
to always speak truth…
