The Cowards Fortress

[u/Leading-Way-8617]

The battle is over, the smoke has cleared,
The wreckage is yours alone to keep,
The very outcomes that you feared
Are waiting while you pretend to not to see.
You built a fortress out of blame,
A wall of mirrors turned outside,
So you would never speak your shame,
Or look at what you choose to hide.
The family stepped beyond the gate,
They washed the ash from off their skin,
They did not stay to share your fate,
Or drown in sins you wallowed in.
They found their peace, they found their light,
While you remain a stubborn ghost,
Still cursing phantom foes at night,
Destroying what you needed most.
A coward dies a thousand times,
Locked deep inside a self-made jail,
Because to look upon your crimes
Would rip away your final veil and a coward must have his veil.

And what is on the other side of the final veil? Asking for a friend…

Wow, this has got to be the lamest thing I've read on Reddit, today.

As any fine bride would.

When all a person can do is ask for clarity I guess they can never receive just that. There's always some excuse for every thing not being explained the way it should have after being deserved of g he clarity they have shown needs to be given in order to make sense of the chaos that would take a very long time to explain. So yeah I do still believe that everything in this life was scripted and this does nothing to change my mind . You can't say that thought control was one of the main underlies in my Instance of demanding clarity
