Does my honesty amaze you.
You crave it.
It is a foreign fruit to you.
The bizarre concept, that a human can open themselves.
Look into their blackness
And face it.
Why do I intimidate you
Is it because
I know what it means to be a prisoner
That by my own admission, submission to the truth
I have earned.
Peace of mind
Through clarity
I will give you no charity.
If you ask, I won’t reply.
Throw your letters of hate
And animosity
Into the fire where they belong.
You will never know why it is wrong .
To be false in the soul at the expense of another.
To take from a lover
Only to give nothing in return
You will rejoice in your short-lived
Self gratification
Until you realize -
It has no worth
You will turn to see where I’ve fallen
Only to find me, bright and pure
As new as I was at the time of my birth.
