Abba, Father,
              let me give back
                            what You gave me!
pass me the cup,
                   I’m thirsty!
Don’t save me!
                    Rather
let them curse me,
           throw me into the dirt,
                                spit in my face,
                   disgrace me.
Let them deny me!
                        I need it!
I rip open my shirt,
                spread my arms crosswise,--
crucify me!
               I can’t perish unheeded,--
I’m a poet!
              Soon they shall know it
                                        when I arise....

I really really liked this one! Some religion behind this one maybe? Anyway it was very well done!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
