Teased: E

Every time a penny falls from the poverty sky, I expect it to be a hundred dollars...the wealth in my heart is plenty, but financial-wise, I'm broke...I am a rich, poor man...wealth doesn't matter to me much...poverty was what I grew up with, though my family was considered "Middle Class"; we still had struggles with finances and we were poor and still are I reckon...teased to the core because of the states I'm in...the darkness is the predator that is out to get me, but I absorb light, so I can generally give it my all to everyone I come in contact with with generosity from my youth to my elder years...I will be kindhearted and loving always and that's no lie that I've been having that as a magnet to my personality...I'm in reality's land, not in fairyland, understand? I'm stranger than fiction because I'm not a fake fantasy, but a genuine human being with feelings, unlike a dysfunctional robot - I feel, I touch, I smell, I faint, I laugh, I smile, t taste, I have intuition, I frown, I tease, and all of the above, so take that information into consideration...I'm sick and tired of being told what to do when I should have freedom before my very eyes - don't you have a clue who I really am from the inside and outside, my trustworthy crew? Listen...to...my...voice... Let all rejoice! But, what comes up must come down, for my cup is half empty now...
