Dancing on Broken Legs

By ktzulu

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Alone to carve my prison Even my thoughts have deserted me Evicted early from the womb And thrown knowing towards the tomb A peasant in the court of noblemen Kicked in the teeth Till my soul bled forth Scrape me and rape me This world will never break me Dancing with death since birth Even he won't take me Pain is my only pleasure All that I've known Walking on the waters of emotion Should I fall and feel I think I'll drown Estranged from guidance's eyes I have lost my wayOct. 2001, Written January 14th, 2002 © on Jan 13 2002 10:25 PM PST   0 • 1
