…

I am a Shape Shifter
a whirlwind of irregularity
take me as i switch between
phases of inward smiles and falsities
odd, the edges never match
stitches of flesh sewn together
a never finished product
a never integrated masterpiece
bleeding into ungrateful lasting
sweetest thing on creations path
the coil unraveled in caring hands
twilight of surfacing competitiveness
tethered skin hanging
stature placed higher than others
statue of unworthy proportions
degrade myself with razor blades
roller coaster of ever changing dreams
prisoner to the cause
i am a disco ball
at my best when i don’t make sense
dirty little whispers
i am the beautiful lies you will discover
if you read between the lines
the torn pieces of a stormy inquisition
faithful when it suits
hypnotic equations partially intact
remaining dangling from a cord
inconsequential jagged bridges of direction
daggers aimed inward, honey
outward is also a founder to the bloodshed
i am the exodus that doesn’t exist
in your ignorant singular perception
that is placed in your reality
emotions spreading, contagious
hidden in contradicting actions
you’ll remember me
i am everything that is wrong with the world
and what remains right in a fleeting instant
like watching the comets trail the nights sky
for i am the observer
