State of war

state of war

 

Such a gentlemen yet an a*****e

covering my face with war paint

so I can out wit the snakes

wanting to show my true face, but I can't

That's not an option I've been bit by a few snakes never again I say

So I live in disguise laying among the fake ones

If I show to much love I would surly be, betrayed stabbed in the back like Judas Iscariot

Wishing I didn't have to subject my self to the things I do

there no escape to this loneliness I face

nothing I can call my own their all taken by another one stuck

but they still let me f**k dam what the f**k so that scars my mind

cause in my heart of hearts they're all the same so I'll keep this paint on my face til my dying day

Thanks! This write was inspired by LENARD L. BANKS lll . I read your poem called THE FEEL and wrote this minutes after. and your comment is totally true. I didn't expect insight on this write but its spot on. dealing with this poem.

Nice work my dude I like this poem, it shows inner strength and a masking of vulnerability. Indeed I too am in a a state of war but I know one day I must lose this war because being fully vulnerable is the only way to being in love. When that day come I must surrender and unmask my vulnerability and reveal my soul in order for her soul to find and embrace my soul. Great write brother, welcome.
