I Am
The longing in my bosom
is not bolder than the
meekness that is there.
I am trapped by it.
there is no key to
my prison just the
lock I have made.
I will not be the
victim to my own
Self-depravation.
I surely have enough
experience in that area
with you.
I am not the weak,
stupid female you see
me as.
I am like Eos
and Lucy but
you see me
as Ms. Bates.
No delight in me
you see just the defects
the constant breaking of
this organ is a ritual.
I will be gone in due time
will you let out a sigh of
relief or will I.
