True

True

A Poem by Adam

I realized today the world was all broken promises

I stand close to each of hell's openings

Among my nightmares once dreams

Leave me on operating tables groveling

I'm pulled apart and life stings with truthful flames

Strung out grasping onto the idea of you, passing out at the sound of your name

 

I couldn't take any other man's advice

The answers I must find myself, all else is just lies

So I'm just dealing myself away

Blind and ignorant aren't I

That’s why I pray

 Why believe it when you tell it


We're in different worlds if that’s what you're forgetting

Won't act like my thoughts are some kind of blessing

I'm a mindless drone just trying to do some connecting

If I try to conquer my mind I’m forever annexing territory of my father, it's deadly

I’m just spitting out what you fed me

Dying of loneliness staring at black refractions contemptibly
