Uncomfortable blindness

The time given

was spent with lies.

Time never returned

once spent.

Manipulated without cause,

lies fall like rain.

To care or not to care,

that is the refrain.

The web was made with children,

the strongest bond.

So was the knife

that made me fall

the first time.

Healing leaves scars

only seen from inside,

reopened

in a meet and greet.

To avoid what inflamed you

is to never feel that

which made you uncomfortable.
