Truly, Truly, Truly (When the Light Rushed in)

My heart had changed;
Manipulated.

I saw good;
It simply did not exist.

Not unlike a blind man,
Who knows no different,
To black.

For me it took an era,
(An era of suffering)
To realise that she,
(The Princess of Darkness)
Had clawed out my eyes.

She pulled my strings;
I truly believed.
Truly, truly, truly.
I believed that there was no better.

Was it love?
No,
It was a fear to displease.
Her wretched words raped my heart.

I broke away,
I fucking broke away.

Bitter – I was so bitter.
My heart beat with fury.

Well I realised.
I realised.
Truly, truly, truly.
That I had been kicked
In the mouth.
Spitting blood.

One hot eve, a wind blew strong.
(It was the strongest that I have felt,
Tearing leaves from trees,
And anger from eyes.)
It caused an incredible ruckus.

And she flew in on the currents,
Of Summer’s almighty breath.
She cured my blindness,
And the light streamed in.

With each beam of light,
That refracted through my eyes.
Another pang of happiness,
Struck.
Truly, truly, truly,
It struck

Not all are similar,
To the Princess of Darkness.
That is something.
Truly, truly, truly.
