Truth Will Always Find You

Here I am now, in this endless ocean of lies and despair.

I've been stuck here for some time.

I don't know if I'll get out soon, but I think there is a reason for that. There must be a reason for why I am here in the first place. 

Anyway, here at the bottom of the ocean, I'm very alone. Very sad...

There is no one here. Not a single soul to keep me company. 

It is also very dark. And I'm blinded by all this darkness, it's so overwhelming. 

All I hear is an empty silence that makes my heart ache and all I feel is the cold water making my body numb.

I forgot who I am. I can't remember how I became like this or how I got here in the first place.

But I do know that before all this happened I was a normal person.

Even if I might have lost myself on the way, there always was something that pulled me back. 

And I was desperately clinging to that something. I still am...

And now I hope to be found again. I hope that something will show me the way and will lead me into the light once again.  I want to be found.

There's something, however, that I've always known. This is the only thing I couldn't forget.

And that is the fact, that no matter what I did, what I said or what I felt, I knew the truth.

Maybe I didn't always speak the truth, maybe I lied to myself or others and maybe I didn't do what I truly needed to, but even though my brain was telling me this lies, I knew in my heart the truth. Just the truth. 

Maybe that's what always saved me. Maybe it was the truth that I always knew about myself and about the world. 

I lived truly and I loved truly, so maybe that's the reason why I can say, now, that everything I felt was true and pure. 

Still, here I am, at the bottom of the ocean that is made out of lies. But I'm not afraid. No, I can't say that.

Because all I know is that truth will always find me.
