where the wild flowers grow

trickle down on me
oh simple time,
you have shown me hands
stained with the blood
of recognition
and
they are not mine..they
will never be mine.

wide
grinning mouth,
you have stood strong
and said
the words that I have gaurded
in tones so perfect,
though it was not worth it
for them to be spent.

please, skin,
though i touched you
with such mercy,
you failed to mention
that it isn't fighting
if i am on my knees....
you'd rather endure the bruises
than tell me what I need.

and further inside
where the cavaties lie,
my blood defies me,
prying and
trying
to escape..


it is only
a mere shred
of dignity..
of reality of which
I disposed of..

this blood?
it is not mine, and nor
are these hands...

Hi...so good to see you!

"wide

there is much dignity in truth

I like these lines ecspecially..I know all too well the wide grin you write about,,,,and the teller of secrets,,,,

Good work
