Who Am I

I am not a poet
I am the truth spitter
Don’t call me Christian
Call me disciple of my own religion
I am not a prophet of words
I am the prophecy
I am the words
I am the future
Plant a seed in me
And look at how it grows
Love and pain do go together
Love, however, I am not
I am pain
I’m the sorrow of tomorrow
I’ll corrupt your good morals
Your sacred feelings I will borrow
Step on them and burn them
And then I will return them
I will make you black inside
Smoke and fire go together
Smoke, however I am not
I AM FIRE
I will turn to dust everything you got
I’m the sorrow of tomorrow
And I am coming for you soon

Stephen Kilmer Date: 10/24/2013 8:35:00 PM So who are you? A dark and gothic woman we should fear in the night? Or just a poet making a statement? Well written to the point and very effective. And one crazy avatar girl. I dig it. Love it and fear it~ Kilmer Login to Reply
