with each line i write, i am exposing more and more of myself
with each verse, you can watch as the veil covering me slowly ascends,

nanometer by nanometer

but this is only accurate if what i am writing is the truth,
which can never be so,
for it can only be my truth,
my truth is malleable
and subject to the emotions within me at any given time
it's not that i am dishonest, but at times, i loathe reality,
and occasionally, i will rewrite my own history
in a way that i see fit
in a way that can portray a situation, a moment, a feeling
the way it should be portrayed,
the way that i remember it
