Vertical Thinking

By TheOtherYou

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I've thought about it all and come to a decision I'm just gonna let you suffer and i'll never interfere Cuz that's just who i am all cold and heartless And if i'm only selfish then why am i so afraid? It's almost beautiful the way the classic story plays out I see through all the smoke and skin and comprehension I'm bleeding again, give me a tourniquet to cut it off Home is lost forever now that pity has been destroyed The fading colors of yesterday still fresh in my mind I bite and teeth only to destroy all i've created Manifesting and festering all this evil within me Eyes are gone before you know you're blind but you are It's all just symbolic the way you sell yourself This conquering device couldn't unclog your mind Unattainable due to my lack of structure and brilliance You design my divine eyes, we're just cold and heartless It's prolific that you're gifted and i don't deliver All i've sacrificed will never relate to you You've delayed the fact that you’re slowly dying It’s a vague description of the cold and heartless soul i ownnot even i know what this is about...and i wrote it!
