Toro Mar 2013
the clock changes to 6, the sun begins to rise,
you lay awake, thoughts brewing, red eyes.
disappointment and sadness fill the growing void,
as everything you once held dear is destroyed.
love, life, family, friends all disappear into the abyss,
only memories, standing alone, left to reminisce.
a time that once was great, that never needed change,
your heart heavy, a thought you deem strange.
love never had a part, not a moment that made you believe,
because everyone in your life decided to leave.
never again you said, not again, so it won't hurt,
holding a barrier using all the power you could exert.
nothing ever lasts, nothing ever works out,
the void you feel fills with sorrow and doubt.
succuming to the darkness, leaving nothing left,
as every part of your life becomes bereft.
the sun may be rising but the day seems as dark as night,
for the shadows will keep pulling you away from the light...
To assimilate

your way of

thinking, I'd

have to not

love myself.

To be what

you say,

I am not

I will not

be what I

can not be

a liar...

like you.

Straight

and

narrow minded

like you.

I am me

A lover of women

A lover of men

the *** in your closet.

A woman in love

with being in love.

A defender

of the unforgiven,

the denied, and ashamed.

I will not go

not go gently

I will make

a presence

My voice will

shake mountains

my will unyielding.

I am not

what you say.

I am love

I have love

will share, receive

and give love.

I am not

will never

be what you

depict me to be.

insecure

I am not

A liar

I am not

Ugly

I am not

A threat

**** right

Strength

and

Beauty

Passion only succuming

between my lover's thighs

and my thirst

quenched by lover's lip's.

I am a woman

who loves her enemies

always reminding me

of what I will

not allow

myself to be...

a person projecting their

feelings onto other's

I am not-

like you.
