Me

How far I have come to meet you Your ambition lies beneath your purview How have you been, my old friend Trapped, waiting for this torture to end Tell me all about yourself, I ask of you You're hard to trust, I construe Trust me, for this time I will not deceive you You can't deceive me, even if you try to Then tell me who exactly are you I am what you always knew Veiled by your complaisant being I hear you could make the sun rise, and the birds sing I am no conqueror, I haven’t what you seek You are the dawn to my perpetual bleak It’s someone else you fancy, now leave me be But we are one, can’t you see? Let’s be together and set you free Like we have in the past, haven’t we? In a corner, you left me stranded It wasn’t me; it was what others demanded Oblivious I have become of who I was Let’s find it together for a mutual cause I will trust you this one last time And one we shall become, you and I

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
