Who I Am...Who Are You

Loyal to a fault
my emotions run 
wild...

this repose this 
de volt...

I hang my head
in revolt...

...you made your
choice...I understand...
how ever... 

this loyalty disrespects...

an obvious choice...
a danger to lack insight
discarded reject...

yes this hurt...I am...
my heart heavy...
heavy like cold steel...

to you I will not reveal...

...this heaviness I will
endure...this passion
self remedied...no man
can cure...

...for you have subject me
worthless...

...I will stand firm...
...a valuable lesson 
learned...

...my spirit precedes me
...my faith exceeds me...
...for this I am sure...

...for in a new light
I observe you - you are now
truly seen...
