"Depth Of Damage"

 

A single word...

The length...

And true intent in meaning...

The description...

Or lack of any definition...

Lead to the actions taken...

Which now bear witness to the aftermath

And all to often, devastation...

Do you even know?

The true depth of damage

When ego driven control demands all...

The narrative changes to suit the day...

Is being right worth the cause of emotional war?

Where is the correction found?

Over shadowed by an uneven moral ground

Hidden is the truth behind the facade

For answers given are all reasons to nothing

A simple question was asked...

And lies were told...

Fed to the willing...

Poisoned was the fruit laid out

Cold and bitter was the taste

Allowances were given...

Until all reasonable cause defied explanation...

Time revealed all intention...

Silence found a deception come to light

It's not an over reaction...

For when betrayal is used to lead the heart astray

And force the view of many...

To make another less than what they appear

Or even feel...

You remove all validation

To the point of abandonment...
