I lie awake And breathe your air Taking in consumed folicles of life You are one, I am one The only Individual I still think For myself Among others I taste the blood on my lip Metalic and warm Like soft body sweat Ater a passionate contention Stripped and insipid As you are As you were Individual Inspired to be set free Yet still able to Hang on One Two Three It's slipping away from me I gain everything you have lost And feel free enough to do those things I desired most out of you The person that came to be Individual But somehow I still see Even though you've blinded me You haven't taken me over Although I know You wish you did You had me once You had me twice I fell in your trap While trying to catch you in mine I onced believed you were Individual Do not intimidate me Do not negate me I will entomb you in your own Misconceptions I am you I am me I am everything You wouldn't expect This Individual to be....... "It was my love that did us both to death. " -Sylvia Plath |

Sounds like you're quite the mystery! At least you know who you are, some of us can't even say that. LOL Hang in there, wow the emotions you write with are staggering. |

Your words speak powerfully...nicely done. Loved the phrase "folicles of life"  |

I like the self confidence you reveal. Nice writing. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |
