Own It

Let me write, let me keep on telling these eyes that realize all the fucked up shit happening through each and every sentence I deliver on a platter of silver. Know that when I speak I talk to points not even reached by mountain peaks. This could be my best write yet or my worst one, wanna make a bet? See, I know how to write, I know how to talk, but I can never walk that walk. I’m a shut in, I’m a wimp, I’m a loser, I’m a drug user. I say it fucking proudly because all we have in this world are what we do and who we are and I’ll be damned if they dim my star. I don’t know how to get these words across to you, I don’t know what the fuck you’ve been through. You’re complex and challenge my brain, at points I think you’re making me insane. I love you but I’m no longer in love with you, hell I don’t even know if you love me too. Love isn’t a word but more a movement, an act of the heart, love is nothing but a work of art. How can you shatter all that is yesterday and try to pick up those shattered remains starting today which ends back in a cycle lock in yesterday. Look me in the eyes and tell me all your fucked up lies. Let me know you’ll never let me go. Let me know that with every sentence I write I get closer to serving my time for some inhumane crime. I’m a blood born criminal, I’m a blood born genius; when these get together it’s a fatal mix. Tell me I’m not good enough, tell me I can’t do what I was meant to. See I can make this world stop on a dime, I can take all that you are and call it mine. You say this is writing but what you don’t know is I’m screaming in a dark room, once mine but now has no meaning. I simply relate what I say until these words speak such truth they make me irate. Everything in life is not handed to you, you need to defy the odds and capture that shit for your own; now tell me, when you leave here, are you going to make a name for yourself or sit here heart full of shame? Tell me what the fuck you’re destined to do, and never let that go; don’t just chase your dreams, make them your steps to a bigger goal; and whatever you do, never stop, for nothing, life ain’t as simple as the media makes it seem. This world is demeaning but show them all, you have a fucking meaning.
