Pride

I’ve been living a lie for so long…
I don’t even recognize the truth anymore.
It’s been twenty years of blood and deception.
Decades of pain and living under a veil of darkness.
It blinded me from the truth.
What was right in front of me.
The thing I tried to forget and keep buried.
But now, it’s rising to the surface.
It threatens to destroy more than just my plans for Chicago.
This may also decimate my pride.
And it just might cost me my life.
