Am I a poet

Am I a poet, no I am a worthless man bloody and broken

My heart will fail my mind will turn to dust and leave my tainted soul

I sit here hunched over this table and scratch out thoughts

Do people read them? Not often and I am fine my children of the mind

Those who read think and see and neither I nor they the better

The dream comes again my dream is always there

They fear me but none see the dream my soul so weary

My heart fails but I will not die yet I have a life to live

I stand-alone and yet I stand, will I always be alone

Hearts quake the mountain trembles and I mean no ill

Worlds turn their hate burns and they know me not

Trust me yes, follow me not for I go where angels fear to tread

I bleed again

My worthy friend
