What is Life, What is truth
                                          A Pause for Truth



                Breaking the silence of my ever waking screams of pain
                          Is the horrible realization that life is not real
                                  It is a fake absolution of a dream
                                            A farce of reality
                      The reality of life is that we are all dead inside
                    Searching for a happiness that will never be filled
                    Searching for our souls in the painful hatred within
                                    A small hard lining of stone
                            That covers our emotions like armor
                                Blaming others for our mistakes
                            It takes our hearts and minds to rest
                                        In a graveyard of truth
                        Truth that is not in its entirety plain to see
                                        Not exact in its lies
                                          We breathe to live
                                          And we live to die
                        We open ourselves to the harsh pain within
                                  And ask it to leave us alone
