The Truth

Dysfunctional, disjointed disappointment

Discreet displays disappear
Discover, uncovered disarray
An unkempt soul
Eyes pried wide open, to stare in dismay

At rest, trapped dreams memorize the inner contours of my eyes
Never permitted to dance in the light of day

Subtle twitches, signs of life
The remaining happiness slyly choked by an apathetic grip
Discounted imaginings sentenced to death

Disarm the guard who disregards the heart and upholds these walls
Disrespectful thief of joy
An interest in self-care, his latest ploy

Distant, disembodied, discarded
What for?
Disinfected, let's dissect the discomfort we endure

Deflect: agree to disagree, incorrect
We delay the inevitable, dismantling what was previously built only to callously redirect

Disdain for dishonesty
Diseased discussions lead to mutual disgust

The distinction between tolerance and acceptance
Disentangle, disengage the hate
Initiate love
