I am just me

prism

inspired by very many people






you see a disease
when you think of me
it doesn't even show
though that's all you see

I don't need you to make it better
because you can't
that's a job better
left to the dead

why can't you be honest
and come right out to say
"this makes me uncomfotable
I can not deal with it"

it's okay for you
to laugh with me
considering I'm always the first
one to laugh at myself

however it's easier for you
with all of your fear
to pretend that
I no longer exist


wait a fucking second
this is just me
I am not a disease
though that's all you see

ISN

good poem.....I especially liked the words 'wait a minute'...... so commanding......sometimes I get 'the tone' with my baby, and he knows I'm not messin around......I like to think of it as that voice they used in the book Dune..(I think it was called the weirding way or something)....it's amazing - I just use that tone......very commanding......and he knows I mean business.......I think that's what your 'wait a minute' did in this peom, it focussed everything on tone.....and I guess it's pretty serious.....

Being Enlightened

YEAH! I like how the title links into the last stanza. I like your poem and how it says that it doesn't matter what YOU think, I am just me!

Prism....
I am not a disease and my disease does not represent me....
you make me think.
Thanks....

if i listened to the actions of the person that i gave my all to
the one i gave all my love to and all my heart to and all my soul to
the one i put total belief in...
then, yes...
i'd haveto believe i was one of those many people too
one of the diseased

and i'm afraid i do believe that way too often.


none of us should put that much stock in someone that can be so cruel
no real love is that cruel

hey, pris, FUCK THOSE PEOPLE!
i like how you put it out there...purged some emotions, maybe. get rid of those people.

now, to the quoted portion - i wish that everyone could fight off those feelings. i know how hard it is. i know how much people want to believe in love and most of the time get fooled into believing in what is in front of them, acting like love. i can't wait to get hit with it, for real...not that fake shit!

me too

and as far as fighting it off
maybe i sound like it but i really don't do a good job of it
i'm a disease called "i suck"

did my mood do a dip in 30 minutes or what?

violet ray

and that probably made no sense
blame it on the coronas
sorry for using up so much space in your thread priz

that is all

"don't let the sun go down on me"

i was just reminded of how cruel hearted some people really are...i'm sorry.

prism
