Bold Revelations

by Trisha De Gracia

In dark realities
broken homes and broken bones
torment and physical abuse
endless merciless suffering
drugs and suicide
dead eyes staring from the kitchen floor
blood
All the blood
Pain beyond my own comprehension.
Pain without hope
without options
----------------------------------------------------
I am here,
in my safe little bubble
complaining about the living space.

Author's Note: Read from bold to bold as well.

We should be grateful, the few of us.

Life without the driving force, the hope? The revelation is complete, paradoxically, with the presentation of the other side of what is.
