Dont tell me what I already know,
as you stand there anticipating
what I may or may not believe,
about a dream,
or a lie,
or a foolish mistake.

Don't tell me what I already know,
gathering information and accumilating
my deepest wish,
or my darkest secret,
or a worthy promise.

Don't tell me what I already know,
as you sit there listening,
for a key to my tales,
about my work,
or my love
or my life.

Tell me something that I want to hear,
like a quote,
or a fact,
or a phrase,
feed my imagination,
with something I've never heard.

Wow, I like this one too, in fact, there's not much here at passions I haven't liked, but your work is always great.  thx for the read.

Well done here. I liked how you wrote this one. I connected with it.  

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