Flesh
there i am - in this uninspiring place
so easily i spill the Truth
that i now share with you ...
so easily i say it
confessing my doubts
and so much more i falter now
to release it
with Reality indemned to me
with your Genuine gaze troubling my soul
it is FLESH i abhor above all else
intrigue entrapping hope
festering inconceivable fears ...
it is this FLESH that floors me,
whispering cringy ultimatums
till ineptitude is definite!
so when you called me
to see me
with your genuine reassurance,
you can be sure
that above all else
i am caged in your love
with my trusty fears ...
i will regret ever telling you my truth
because you cannot move pass my FLESH
while my soul rages in the fiery depths
of your inquiring heart
think for once of yourself!
how my caged life will destroy your Faith
while FLESH transfixes the mind
forcing all of my flaws to your light
in your genuine Love ...
far from this cage i am placed
for Tomorrow
it is your FLESH
that i must face!
