Metal and ScarsA Poem by R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)A little poem about pain and how you have to just tough it out in the end anyway.Dreaming, with that sunlight beaming Eyes wide tears streaming I hear screaming Is it just me? Am I afraid to be a real man, know who I am and accept it? Find my flaw and correct it, hide my sorrow forget it? Am I supposed to be calm and collected to make you see me? Believe me? Relieve me of all my grieving’s? But could you be me? Forgotten in chains, brains rotten in pain, metal’s the main source of my intelligence Think someone sown back together can forget about scars? He can. I have so many I no longer know who I am Spread my blood like jam and lather your veins in my metal rain And then give me the blame to chew on because I’m the one gone wrong Long ago I was human too The sky was blue, no rain, solace, no pain, time changed, lost everything, even my heart Know I laugh with the b******s who broke me, because it’s a funny joke see? You think a broken man can’t stand? I may not know the difference between friend and foe but I won’t fall to the ones who stole my freedom Until I can see them again I play this game until the end and defend the truth with my body, my metal, and my scars got me this far The burden is large, but I’ve carried larger, happiness is far off, but I can walk farther You can talk s**t about us, but I won’t be listening The truth is glistening, crying, an eye never drying, all-seeing, and you're being a little b***h so keep dreaming of blue skies Because even the best of men can only dream that things will get better So you can suck my rainy weather © 2018 R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Author's Note
