So, you want a poem?
     or do I?
     or do they?
It doesn't matter.
I think it's me.
Is that what this is?
What have I written?
Can I use this talent?
a poem's for-giving,
     many purposes;
This rhymin' is used.
     for feeling;
     for love;
     for emotion abused;
You see?
     maybe not;
I feel alone!
Only sometimes,
Don't get me wrong.
I like to write songs.
Now, to another subject,
That of ... school.
There ... try to learn,
Could even be, Kool?
But I can't,
I mean stay awake.
My sub-conscious mind,
     I won't forget;
Another thought,
     death;
     Death!
There is a difference,
     between death;
     between kill;
Biologically,
Death is ill.
Wrongly though?
Thoughtless traitors
These deceive.
Not receive.
And I, I be dream'.
So,
One more peace?
     or place?
     or ... or ... or piece?
A piece of life,
A wheel of life,
Granted,
     for granted;
     for-ever
I know
I should.

I'll live,
     eternally;
     hopefully.
