PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

There are parts of me,

that even now, 

After every piece you've managed to destroy or steal,

I will keep hidden from you.

You haven't earned it yet.

You mustn't distrub my view. 

You would take it all 

And leave me hollow.

So, I'll give you everything,

no action is too extreme,

no verbal abuse too biting,

because you'll never have this. 

My physical body is just that shell

That is meant to distract and gleam.

Too keep you from delving deeper,

Too keep you for from my inner most thoughts 

because only that meat is taintable 

the rest is nothing I cannot recover. 

 So, I think maybe I sought you out 

because I knew you could never 

and wouldn't even try 

to find this part I keep safe.
