Naked Legacy
I taste the beating of your heart
As truth drizzles onto my soul
Daring me to challenge this equation
That turns two pieces into one whole
I embrace a broken mirror
As I am claimed by torment beyond measure
Calling me to face the rigors of this legacy
But instead I run toward pathways of twisted pleasures
I am adrift on a raft of exasperation
As my kidneys' secrets are revealed
Moving me along with sweet defiance
Yet I can't deny this stinging that I feel
I step on a muted diamond
Then blood trickles from my feet
Washing the shackles from my being
Releasing me from this lie of ambiguity
