                                                   I can conquer kingdoms
                                                  with the wave of my hand.
                                                 I can make mountains move.
                                                  I can dance on water never
                                                       touch the sand.
                                                     You're the one with
                                                     something to prove.
                                                         But you. . .
                                                 Can't see inside my dreams.
                                                           I do. . .
                                                The most unbelievable things.

                                                       I will live forever
                                                       see I never age.
                                                  Do unto me what you will.
                                                    I'm the oldest prophet,
                                                     I'm the oldest sage.
                                                  One which you cannot kill.
                                                         You see. . .
                                                    I've lived an eternity.
                                                           It's me.
                                                   The one no one believes.

                                                     Listen to my words
                                                     please never forget.
                                                 Tattoo them on your brain.
                                                    I'm the one to end it,
                                                     see I have no regrets.
                                                 I feel no pleasure or no pain.

                                                          And I. . .
                                                   Can see inside you head.
                                                         You try. . .
                                               To comprehend just what I said.

                                                     I will always be here
                                                      see I'll never leave.
                                                  You can't hold it all inside.
                                                    Everything I tell you,
                                                      you must believe.
                                                    Never say I didn't try.

                                                         You see. . .
                                                 I've lived and died for years.
                                                          It's me. . .
                                                  The one you'll always fear.

this is a very cool poem...
I enjoyed the turn of phrase and the cadence made it fun to read outloud...
I also liked the slightly sarcastic witty edge to this...
it has an "in your face" attitude about it.
Well done new poet...
Welcome to passions Adam,
nice to have you here, I too look forward to more of your work.

I'm hanging on your every word
Even if you dont want to speak tonite
It's alright
I'm sitting outside heaven's door
listening to you breathe
