Tiny trickles then waterfalls

Always had the feeling, there was a few things just not right.
I'd spend many hours pondering, late into the night.
Listen to the wind blow, and the rain pour down
leaving a deep storm within, inside a tiny frown.
We cannot live in our past, but at times that is where the truth is told.
Crawling out of closets, hurting others souls.
Deep inside not knowing, but do we really want or need to know?
Then a tiny trickle starts to rupture the brim,
soon a tidal wave, let the waterfall begin.
In nature there is such beauty, and power there resides
with the tide and steady currents,waterfalls steady and wide.
Yet the pounding and the thrust may make one feel like they will drown,
same as that tiny truth that suddenly like the water falls hit the ground.
You started the ball a rolling, the truth you had to know
now are you sure it's too late, that truth is where you really needed to go?
You have it all front and center, as the currents begin to roll
there is no turning back now, more truth and secrets you will soon know.
So for a different reason, you lay awake pondering at night.
Listening to the wind howl, the rain pound with all its might.
Your heart feels a bit heavy, tears sit silent on your cheeks
you got the truth oh yes you did, making you feel a bit sick and weak.
The ghosts are crawling out of the closets,
the fog is rolling in...... no making sense of the horrors now
do not even know just where it ends or begins.....
You started the tiny trickles, now you have waterfalls
past be past, past is risen, truth bites you after all........

| What a great write. I loved your imagery, and the flow. I followed your words and could join the walk with the pictures formed. I liked the truth in your words. Thank you for sharing, P. |

| This is brilliant! What struck me most was the idea of getting painfully lost in and confronted with truth, memory and the past. Also, the use of the metaphors, imagery and rhymes are beautiful! |
