Slicing Thought

by Mommy And Me   Aug 5, 2006


Like the flower i have bloomed
but what is thought
is not what they expected
like the heart i have bled
but not with the knife
they have stabed me with
i have fallen into a pit of doom
they have led me here
i have been sliced from head to toe
they held the knife
i have pleaded for my life
they placed me on my knees
even with my goodbyes
they wave it off and slice me more
no im not running
they just think i am
i am walking slowly
they led me here
i had that life
they put me to shame
but now i am myself
and they crumble beneith me

    Another powerful write, and again you've done it with a stunning visual feel to it. Your writing really doesn't come across as being written by someone as young as your profile would suggest, as I don't tend to find the poetry of the young that captivating that often.

    You have a clear and enjoyable style when you write this darker, seamless way. I'm impressed.
