Crushed in the palm of my hand
I cut u loose
I turn u into sand
U drift through my fingers into time
It takes forever to lift the burden of proof
From my mind
For all I know is true
It passes through my mind
And I can't stop u
From destroying all
U crush the walls and burn through all That's false.

excellent write. amazing in fact. even though most poems are written for a reason, the poems are mostly remembered by a readers interpretation. the only problem i have with this, is you say u, instead of you. dont short cut words, because then you short cut poems. all saying u makes me think, is that you dont want to put effort into this poem with typing two extra letters. something this good, takes effort, so why not show it?

Very interesting piece. I like this... the imagery is wonderful. The first four lines clinched it for me --- a terrific opening.

Welcome to YPDC! I do hope stick around and share some more of your poetry!
