Is it Life?

Contributed by unbreakable on Friday, 23rd September 2005 @ 04:55:36 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Unblended emotions
run through my head
enabling me to see
a truth in what's dead

Uncanny expressions
flow from this pen
Skillfully twisting
your words again

Look me in the eye
know I'll never hold back
don't let your gaze stray
anticipate my attack

In hand-to-hand combat
you draw your sword
My weapon is ink
your blood lies in my word

Both love me and hate me
in each breath you draw
recognize that your touch
is my tragic flaw

Please understand why
I condemned you to hell
and know in your heart
that I always meant well

but my life means nothing
behind this brick wall
just one single word
in the book of it all

You don't even know me
because I died before
for I refuse to be
another man's whore

These words are my soul
they're my anthem, my race
this page holds what substance
hides behind my face

Is it a life at all, that can be
summed up in one day
And if I never asked, would you
have loved me anyway?
