[bodytext] => Ponder the sweet requiem of discord What instrument of persuasion played me for a fool? And drums into me my imperfections I ache with resounding dissonance Skin ripples with harsh abrasions Strikes out a darkened melody. Aesthetics, a desirable package Persona, blackened by malcontent In the morning there is nothing left But what's inside of me. Drained of desirability A shell of unwanted shadows. Who is truly selfless? Why are "adults" infinitely wiser? My erudition raises the finger at experience To break the bonds of uniformity Form my true self Even if it is a saddened one. Rape yourself of these former tokens Discard shattered promises Should I war with will for love? Against my natural defenses Chase a greater dream. One where love loves me.
