Lamp Shade


another constraint like the lamp shade or the walls you paint that begin to fade cannot be spread throughout the room another dread always in gloom cannot be fully free nothing really could for as you can see all that matter would be just what it takes to take that which was pure and uninhibited - - water formed into a lake but what was it that the water did for the soil around was the main reason so we may try to be free alone but we wouldn't even be a lie or even be able to be our own if it weren't for those those around us neither us or them chose but we all rose and everyone knows as each of us grows more and more shows that we don’t change from others but the others let us be us we are less influenced by them than we have ourselves reflected right off of them for it was hidden and now it shows and now it glows and everyone knows

I've been writing poetry for about two years now, I just finished my first year at Purdue and I am a gymnast, parkour enthusiast, longboarder and I do pretty much every other extreme sport, and I adore nature.
