I've no reason to listen to you
It makes no difference if what you say is true.
You're just a person and another thought
A voice in the wind and all for naught
A differing thought that wouldn't sway me
An unorthodox belief that would surely slay me.
The path I chose is straight and narrow
To meander the other would leave me harrowed.
To join your mental insurrection
To break the shell that gives protection
To expose the soft, thin flesh within
And let the world naturally thicken my skin.

Dude everything you write inspires me to keep going. The way you express yourself in your work is chilling and thought provoking. I feel like I'm listening to you speak through the page!
Chilling! I like that, thanks!
