'nobody has the monopoly of truth'
i say it so elegantly as i revel
in my savage indignation

when the next time comes,
with an ardent stare, i bleed inwards
watching the horror movie unfold
before me. but like any other time,
i stand on the top of the mountain
'nobody has the monopoly of truth;
leave it as it is'

to come out unscathed from
this nightmare has been a miracle
but i still am somewhere
beyond comprehension
i flounce in my own world
believing i was the chosen one
i could precipitously run towards
my dreams; without any care
after all, i am a dreamer

but then in the ensuing years,
i found myself spiralling downwards;
crashing like the stock markets
did in 2008.

it was then i realised, perhaps
being inoperable was better
so i morosely did so in an
attempt to fit in.

but my thoughts became louder
fitting in never suppressed anything
fitting in instead was oppressing everything

i was never a good person;
neither was i bad
i was lost in a fairytale
built on self-righteousness
which i took great pride in

though at the end,
it was all lies

with the central theme being
'nobody has the monopoly of truth'
