Just Sayin
You’re hiding in the shadows,
your voice is full of scorn,
your thoughts fragmented windows,
your life a chess master’s pawn.
You think you know the answers,
you very seldom concede,
you never accept the equation,
you don’t notice when you bleed.
You laugh in the face of discretion,
you constantly refuse advice,
you shut out the people you know,
you roll their worth with dice.
You’re the solution to the problem,
you’re the knife to the steel,
when will you finally understand
your scars will never heal?
Written: circa 1993
