Everything is always right
And when my silence for this dies,
Move one row back and try this:
Everything is always true.
Insecurity, and its weakness; stupid liars
Trapped by a childs imagination that is not yours
Still hesitant and unwilling to raise his hand
I read I have to live my life
And stop making up stories about it
And the cool thing, the fun thing
Is recoding and beginning to recognize
That an old thing has always been a plain thing
Now that I have moved one seat to the side
And when a first taste calls me bitter
And I see you stuck in a world you call better,
I remember a scold from my first ever teacher:
"I have told you once, I have told you more,
You are performing the same take away
And calling it addition"

I guess I'm not sure what the message of this one was...but that's ok. Maybe you are saying that truth is relative? Either way, thanks for entering and sharing this interesting piece.

Very deep, visual and brillant. I am completely in awe of this poetic piece of art. I have no idea who you are or where you come from, if you are published or not, but this is publishable!!!!
