**** you, your red hair burned my mask And I'm here as I just bask At the way I am exactly The never ending same old me
Overthinking every message Dissociating every passage Of time, losing slowly this here mine Mind and clarity and reason Autumn is your favourite season Funny, it started with a rainstorm Getting my boat off track the shore I was moving to, **** you And your fire eyes They are brown most of the time But become forests when they cry Which is often but not too much The eyelashes are a premium touch That you cannot afford to lose.
I'm hearing warcries up in here I'm angry and I can't see clear Ahead, I think and worry and obsess Of when you'll answers, make a mess Of this sense of self I built, Why don't I just Allow disgust Of this old self Become forgiveness and let it tell A new story?
One where independency Freedom and creativity Some good ol individuality Let themselves be as they are And I dont force them to make a scar On my self, shoulders and back And get myself tattered and cracked Over nothing, Where poetry becomes morphine What do you mean what do I mean? It's used potently for numbing. One where I am and I don't judge And have some faith and have some trust And have attraction and have lust And have virtues and have values And I talk openly about it And I don't feel inadequate Or making myself celibate Or don't let myself create Or forget to ask for help Or I choose to have a friend Not a promise with no end Or a game of play-pretend With myself or with the shelf Of books I have already read On how I can just be myself. In this moment I make them malice, I have the knowledge but need practice, Get into my life some mileage When it comes to discovering This weird perverse confusing thing Some others seem to call living.
I don't really know what's next But I am anchored in myself. And live life as I can tell Best for myself. _M.
