Fleeting relief
is what you feel
when you repudiate
the ghost of the past
Refusing
to face the truth
won’t help
in the long run
Someday
it will come back
make you desolate enough
to haunt you
Confront
all your fears
and clear the cobwebs
of your past

Brave poem of confrontation! Coincidentally, my boyfriend’s parents gave me a tote bag that has a quote, “Truth: You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” ❤ 🙂

Sadly no. She’s busy with her drawings. She joined a Webtoon and that’s where she post her drawings. I’ll send you a link later. She’s already asleep. 😉
