Tired

Alan R

Little by little when they have had me

In all the ways they wanted

Told me

This makes me a higher person

Only to hold me

In all the ways that did them good

They question now

The morality of my tired

As they want more and more

Of what they desire

Avoid looking for the light within

They like to set, my being on fire.

 

-Al

    To be used for another's benefit and told that it is for your own good is a twisted manipulation that if one buys into leaves one normal in a psychotic world and psychotic in a normal world. A very mind provoking work
