I have spoken all the words of my soul diluted for ingestion as half truths and vague lies. As the artist strips to educate the world mirror I have exhibited my naked self, opening the facets of my mind and the threads of dreams; to be held and explored in the hands of strangers. Alone my words exist for my own purpose, here they define me as I am God, having giving birth to my people waiting for them to return the favour. Born with a great line, in constant search of that new wisdom to display in prose. This is the burden that sought me out, I have been chosen to voice my pain, to ease my soul I speak agony for sanity. My experiences are null and void, only fully appreciated by myself. Then when I write am I mocking you, teasing with rhyme, awaiting your interpretation praying that I am not asked for an explanation? This is my parody. Perhaps that was spoken with too much clarity. I have lashed against everything to expel the demons of my adolescence. Life has drained my fight and tamed my voice from a passionate shout to an elegant sigh. Once I waged war today I only want to dream. Hibernation is my new obsession. I have spoken all of my privacy openly allowed the world to see me empty, Isolation of a lover now strangles me. Wounded and alone I refuse to let you see. I deny everything said outside of this parody, Take your poetic piece of me and leave. |

Excellent writing, Brian. I think the best poetry is born of reality. Denise |

And it's unnerving How one move just puts me by myself There you go just trusting someone else Now I know I put us both through hell ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me And I'm not sayin We ever had the right to hold on I just didn't wanna let you get away from me. ~MB20~Leave |
