My pen it spits at you

My pen it spits at you

All the things you

Run away from

Including the all but forgotten truth

My pen it spits at you

Venomous the ink

As you smear it across your face

With your every futile

Attempt to wipe it off

My pen it spits at you

Hands forever stained

Growing darker every day

Frightened by facts

You cannot face

My pen it spits at you

Your black roses

Long ago laid in boxes

Wrapped up like gifts

But were never to be given

My pen it spits at you

All that you swore to yourself

Was too well hidden

To ever be discovered

By anyone least of all yourself

My pen it spits at you

Or does it constantly spray

Aimed at reaching the many like a sprinkler

And you are the child

That can never get enough

Long after the street lights illuminate

You continue to play

I like the poem. It was direct and honest words. I had to read a few times. Real poetry tell the truth and open the doors to thoughts. You did. This is a outstanding poem.

[Rene Velez]

pretty cool, it honestly flows like a rap, hard with the repeating line, but then shifts a bit poetic in the heart of the poem, a hard thing to do, but done well here.

Never has there been a more venomous weapon either! This is beautifully written, the illumination we see is not always what others see! Great piece of work xoxo

[November Gold]

This was amazing! I can SO relate to the emotion expressed here and the thoughts behind it. As writers, our ink and our pens (or keyboards) can be our most dangerous weapon or our best and most trusted friend. Wonderful writing!
