PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

when I need self-obscurity

forget the cards I was dealt

I need that sparkly clear persuasion to hide me from myself...

wake up and get a hold of that sparkly clear persuasion

on my way to school...need incentive for misbehaving...

have a couple of projects...a couple of teachers strictly grading

all I need to forget...is some sparkly clear persuasion...

can't live without you...i'm most alive when you're running

hot through my veins

all my facades are torn away...

all the walls

installed 

atop my personality

are torn down....and what's left is the raw, naked me

naked but happily so...

basic...no complexity 

like my descendants centuries 

ago

for one beautiful night....life is nothing but a dream...

loving everyone..and everyone loving me...

i need that sparkly clear persuasion...to do it's tasty magic..

in order for me

to be the epitome

of love and compassion

it's a very sad display

of insincerity that's been hammered into my mind and deeply ingrained...

in my mental make up.....can't return to my roots...

cause I need that sparkly clear persuasion to remember the truth.
