Identity

By bubblegumcrash

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Identity. I am the writing on the wall, I am the whisper in the night, I am the voice in your head, That you try to fight. I am the changing of the seasons, I am the ticking of the clock, I am the father of time, Time you try to stop. I am the clouds up above, I am the wind in the trees, I am the storm on the horizon, That will knock you to your knees. I am the bird on the wing, I am the lions on the plain, I am the dog in the kitchen, The one that’s completely insane. I am the ink in the pen, I am the lead in the pencil, I am the blade of the dagger, That’s poised to kill. I am the dreams in your sleep, I am the dreams of your life, I am the dreams that don’t come true, That cause trouble and strife. I know who I am, Do you know too? Well here’s a clue, I am you.1997, This is one of the few peices of work i've done that I actaully still like reading. What do you think?
