Foreigners to the entire world
Disconnected from even each other
Unable to live in a righteous reality
Delving into a world that exists inside of them, a world of fallacies and fantasies
Weather they wish to or not, they have no choice but to honor the oath of confidentiality, an oath they made to their thoughts.

And their minds itch to burst
To lift the seemingly invulnerable curse
What a sharp clever torture: to be given words but not a voice

Their believes begin to rot, and their judgment begins to quiver.. They need to speak
But Lucifer concealed the tongues of those not weak.
And he salted the eyes of those who read,
So now real words simply cease to exist, trapped in a dimension between truth and fiction

No, knowledge is not power
Not if it will rust, trapped inside impotent mass
So lonely, so sad, they view the world as if they were surrounded by thick glass
They’d change the way we live and die, if they could only kill the coward inside

But too scared to take a chance, too scared to defy their Fate
If only they would let go of what they’ve been told
They could rise above and find their hidden might

Yet they linger in a world different from ours,
Not caring about seconds, minutes, hours,
They are queer, twisted, and undeservingly acute
And they wonder the world blissfully, helplessly mute

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
