Array ( [sid] => 31101 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Formerly known [time] => 2004-01-08 16:02:46 [hometext] => this is the poem that gave me my name...... it was written about 5 years ago when i was 14 [bodytext] => Ill tame this lion of flesh before the night is over.

My love will not let me rest till my mind is sober.

Reputations form my past chained so tight.

You break free you break fast on my descision tonight.

Formerly known as nothing and no one.

Formerly known as lost.

I've been sold by lies from former generations, who tell me " whats its worth having a hold on a cheap sensation?"

But you ask me in this moment who i say i am?!

A new Creation. A woman

They dont have to understand.

I will not be bound by what they tell me I can be.

I will not be silent.

I will speak my Liberty

Good write. Ecspecially at such a young age.
' whats its worth having a hold on a cheap sensation'
I don't think I've ever heard that before... I guess I'm too young? At 21... Ah well. Lol. I would have to say it depends on the person.
