MY RHYME STORY

Lifepoems

I've been locked out.
I've been locked in.
I'm no stranger to Original Sin.
I was athirst in Lies desert,
until I drank from Truths shore.
No matter what is offered,
I will serve Lie no more.
A paratrooper medic,
at seventeen years.
At eighteen, branded brother, of Cain and his fears.
Escaping mans entraptments,
then catching myself.
I try and learn now
from these memories,
that I store like books up on shelves.
I have sentenced myself, for every forsaken role.
Much harsher than society did,
I grant no parole.
To myself for such actions,
they are burdens I must bear.
A weight that was crushing me,
until I learned to care.
So you can cuff me, contain me,
and hide me from view.
Restrict and inflict me, for what I know to be true.
Shake me, break me,
whatever you dare.
I will deal with it all.
I learned to care.
