There once was a me

There once was a me

A Poem by Tanesha A. Ray
"

Sort of like my ode to the spirit of nihilism...

"

 

 


 

I remember when, I don't want to remember how

There seems no hope in the past, the future, or the now

Lacking are the dreams of old, the tales of heroes passed

The time to read of such fairy tales had come and gone so fast

Adult hood thrust upon me, a dagger and a law

Pave the road for your children children, or like dominoes watch them fall

Animosity is my stronghold, I despise the rules of man

Dictating my liefs' instruction my won't and can't and can's

I refuse to be a puppet, to line up in uniform

I as well as anyone can stand and destroy reform

It's not that I'm a nihilist a rogue or a rebel

All I have are the intentions of creating ripples with my pebble

Destroy me if you can, but future anarchist they will see

of how I fought to save my soul because, there once was a me
