Description

Yesterday My troubles weren't so far away. But nowadays I'm mad for so many reasons Yet I am still laughing at my own jokes Writing my own poems to enjoy them myself I am aware a cancer is set in Wasting away slowly Constrictions around my heart tell me 15 years of ignorance is what is slowing me down This man that man None could relate to what I dream about Soft comfort of curiosity Gentle easings of truth Light strokings of sighs that rise to gasps in the nights sleep. One man alone rivited his eyes into mine to ask me a question wordlessly I didn't say yes I said why me? I am not allowed any nice thing And so that nice thing said try a bit and I did The sin of it forced me to retreat And cry for my lonely death again People like us are not male or female And we don't get want We've got it sated since time immortal
