Why is the burden of me bestowed onto others Spun myself into a story of inferred I never ask for it to occur But the sediment of thought settle And obscure the pure of heart for the good part Of me, and me; disregarding I
The bad comes with good And my great is another's story to persuade aside As a tale of unwanted enactment Paranoia, set with friends and their ghosts For me to panic and ignore the most Of what made me, into I
The tale of so-called wisdom That I spin into the fable of "I" An excuse to remind them of specific life My disciplined story of a false knife That never struck my good heart But left with the purity I sought
My twist of dare is to compare A time of my own felt wasted when forged On the paper that clouds title; "I". A holy biography I do not end Only mock to pray readers will come Come to read words I never wrote As I lie to the circle about the life "I" really lived
Sometimes I forget who I am. Other times, I twist who I am to feel like my life is more than "I". Thanks to my friends, who keep my mind stable when I can't trust my own thoughts.
