Love Poem: Truth

Truth

Truth,
Should be the best thing to offer,
Truth,
It could be the worst.
Truth,
Happens to be the worst for me,
Truth,
It all finally comes out.
Truth,
It spews from your mouth like venom,
Seeping deep within my veins,
Slowing spreading the most agonizing pain inside me.
Cries rip through this fragile mind,
Forcing back the tears,
Only drowning what is left of me.
Truth,
That is all I gave,
Truth,
That is all I thought I received,
Truth,
My truth,
Numb,
That is how I feel I should be around you,
Afraid the truth will only manage to make you vanish for good.
Truth,
I love you.
Truth,
I want you.
Truth,
I need you.
I step towards you,
You step back,
You look at me,
I’m frozen.
Truth,
I am waiting,
Nothing else I want or can do,
Truth,
I want you with me,
Truth,
Here it goes.
Truth, 
Open your eyes,
You’re blind.
You want the truth?
Look,
I am your truth.
