salute

05/2013

I will turn my back

even it breaks my neck

your resolve is weak

             disfigure me 

guide me down the path

I have chosen to be my

own self destruction

I will hide my face

away from who I am

             suppose to be

watch me disappear 

into the dead, black yonder 

like a balloon floating high 

amongst the billowing, toxic clouds 

of our magnificent waste

Really cute poem. I really enjoyed reading it. I loved the first stanza because it shows just how strong you are. And even if you are destroying yourself you will try to be strong. I am rambling now, but I love this. Thanks for sharing.
