Not
Love me and hate me at the same time
Less I be the bringer of comfort and pain
You can choose to go forward or be left behind
Because in life... you can neither go nor remain
Have you run too far or stayed too near?
Have you seen what you do not see?
So you show machoism when you fear?
Why don’t we become what we never will be?
I can be tolerant with an anger at peak
I can also be ridiculous when I’m vulnerably alone
I’m playfully vengeful without words I speak
And to silently be grateful within a crowd left to my own
Why lie knowing truth can kill?
Why be honest when lying I can save?
How did and when were laws made for who?
How is the same since for hence to differently behave?
There are too many rights and wrongs
We have logic illogically and logically
I am myself somewhere and nowhere I belong
Living but in moments if not momentarily
