Keep My Memories
The words I speak
The words I keep
Keep the thoughts
Keep the power
Power to hurt
Power to heal
Heal the pain
Heal the wounds
Wounds of words
Wounds of knives
Knives that sting
Knives that cut
Cut the ropes
Cut the lifelines
Lifelines are pointless
Lifelines hold you back
Back to the future
Back to the past
Past the people
Past the ideas
Ideas of pain
Ideas of joy
Joy for words
Joy for worlds
Worlds of imagination
Worlds of writing
Writing is speaking
Writing is poetry
Poetry is beauty
Poetry is words
Words that comfort
Words that kill
Kill the guilty
Kill the innocents
Innocents who speak
Innocents who die
Die for our country
Die for our people
People that hate
People that love
Love hates innocents
Love hates hate
Hate loves the ruthless
Hate loves speech
Speech kills pens
Speech saves memories
Memories of life
Memories of death
Death...
Life...
