Free, I Am Me
January of 2016?
It is a time for reinvention - my pal
You must diferentiate yourself from the last.
Self discovery is key; how do I know?
Someone told me so
also
Better bundle up becuase no one
No one
No one here likes snow
I am your friend, so I speak to you tenderly
I'm only here to help you endearingly
As your inner thought, your commrade
I help and aboad
I sugarcoat that which is commonly known
however
Teachings of oppression are typically a well digested
lesson.
"Society? It's mighty and strong!
But... are we as a whole
are we ever
Wrong?"
Curious you are, and I'd love to help
but
Don't Ask Me. Ask them.
They mean well.
I can tell by the look on your face
You are not a follower. You are not convinced.
I promise, my friend,
YOU
WANT
IN
ON
THIS
Don't walk away.
"I'd love to be apart of your wonderful society
But honestly, THAT JUST ISN'T
me
Regardless of shame, they told me to change."
"So, being a follower
I broke.
The chains.
"The new year
Prompted me
To escape the format, the rhymes, the sickly conformity that has left this poem
BLIND
<<My brain PULSES with the beat that my own heart gives it. I am at best - ALONE>>
"So now I prompt you - (my friend)
Take charge of
Your Year
Your Minutes
YOUR L I F E"
Because of my year of discovery
my epiphone
I. Am. Me.
I did not write this to say:
"Look self, look sun, look humanity
I am FREE
because I learned to streak the face of that which cradled me"
But if I did
Would I be judged?
