Forget Me Not

Condescension Where do the actions lie I am telling you I do not I am here for the thing that is forgotten by all I want you to know I am simple and whole I am true to you I am fooling you I am simple and a man like a dimple on your face I am stifled Reaction to the actionless lifeless voidless countless empty wholes in my heart I am A simpleton Yet a man How dare they make fun of the way things are in the world when THEY are the reason things ARE in this world I can't believe it; it makes me question reaction of actionless passion so fast and desperate I am quite finished finished with respect I am toyed with played upon and preyed upon I am lifeless My heart is broken I am forever unspoken How can you believe in something so meek I live in your dreams I fill you with desire despondent I am sometimes I am sometimes content I think of the things you've said I think of the things I've done then I look at the world...and I want to run How can it be that there are so many free men Yet bound by chains They think themselves not lame I think they are so faulty broken likely Like a sand dune they are empty inside Fire holds nothing to hide I escape with out an action word Sand...so plain I can hold Falls through my fingers I can't stand to linger I know you I can sense you are wanting I can't leave you today I believe it is flaunting my heart that is Is it not visible In a simple verse so deceived by God I am credible Like a small child I am simple and open Why are we here Why are we spoken for Where do we go to Now that we have cried out rivers of blood I am yours, take me, or have you forgot.
