Poems
May 2013
Contradictory
I am an old soul
Trapped in a youthful body
I am of unsound mind
In a world built on sanity
My mind yearns for truth
In a society of lies
I long for shadows
In the exposed light
I search for love
In whirlpools of deception
I am a strong body
Stitched together with weakness
I find comfort
In unsettling rains
I seek sanctity
In the midst of danger
I am a failure
Hiding behind my successes
I am a bundle
Of courage and cowardice
I am an old soul
Trapped in a youthful soul
I am human
But I am not
