PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You know I am

Brain dead

With a heart

That’s as heavy as lead

I can’t talk

To anyone

Or have any

Sort of fun

I can’t think for myself

And am getting fat

But I am told

I can get a tat

So who’s crazy now?

Me who wants to think

For myself? Or you for trying

To keep me on this brink?

Holding me back and down

Scared that if I do think

For myself I will

Know everything and sink

Right into that hell

That you’ve always feared

That my life will be

From your life, seared

So I know that its not

Me you’re trying to protect

No not at all, it never really was

Its me you’re trying to deflect
