Poems
Jun 2013
I aspire to...
They ask about my idol
When I spoke my truth
They laughed
You cannot chose as you chose
Your idol must be a person
Must be human
I have no human idol
I am not common
I do not aspire to being what everyone is
Humans are greedy
Humans are needy
Humans are ugly
Humans are evil
Humans are cruel
Humans hate
Humans take
Humans are human
They forget to live
Yet regret to die
They push away others
Then wonder why they live in solitude
They hate loved ones
And loved hated ones
We are weaved with imperfections
Relying on broken foundations
I aspire to the mirror
It only ever gives back what it takes in
Only ever shows us the truth
Behind the lies
I aspire to a mirror
To relive
To revive
To reflect
