Words are the enemy

July 30, 2013

Always taught to embrace the world never ought your heart unferl 
For inside our deepest desires moments leapt we perspire
Inside my eyes an unlitfire
No passion no gain
Every single though just an unwashed stain
Her words melt me ears with unquelched  fears
Binding themselves to my soul
If left unkempt they will form a hole
stealingmy creativity a lack hole of negativity
and still I bask like nativity at a joy tha is not my own
Even though Im ever grown hose words will never leave me
Stuck like sap her words the trap
Will I ever know freedom
will I ever know words of my own
The overbearing light has shown
Now im standing fully grown
Wondering what I may have never known
Inspired
