My Own Self

by DMG   Sep 9, 2004


How can I trust you when I can't trust me?
How can I live life when life bores jealousy?
How can I survive when I can barely stand up?
How can we last when you just don't give a f-ck?

I want to live today like there is no tomorrow.
I want to live through all the strife and the sorrow.
I want to live as though I am invincible,
As if death was no longer a principle.

I am who I am and I won't be changed.
I am what I am and I can't be tamed.
And if you want to try quit while your ahead,
My being is as strong as an anvil made of lead.

    Thanks Kracky. Sometimes poetry doesn't have to rhyme though, does it? Plus, it sounds close enough. I can think of a few of your poems where couplets don't rhyme ;-) Thanks dawg.
