Untold Verses (Poetry and Art Book)

You

You are you
And I am me
But sometimes I can't be
Completely me
I always loved you
And you always say you knew
Love is tough to me
I wish you could see
That in the past I have hurt others
Hurt those who were my brothers
I wish you could say that I have hurt them
And they have hurt me
And I am like a timid abused dog
Sitting in the rain clog
I'm not ready
To feel those Keaton songs
Dropping bombs
Within my hearts
Shattering the structure
Of what once was luster
Missing me
Missing what I was
I can never keep up with anyone
I wish I could be
Me
I know change is bound to happen
But sometimes I can't keep up
I am a crumbling man
That's hard to love
I want to be held
I want to just melt
I don't want to crack
I'm tired of the shit I pack
The shit I pack on to keep my heart together
I wish I could just feel
Warm
Within my storm
I want it to be calmed
Let me feel the skin of my lover
Hidden within my bed cover
God have mercy
I am terrified
Because I cannot be verified
Within a society like this
As a health human
With a mind likes this
All it needs was a kiss
But sometimes people hold back
Because I simply lack
Looks
Hooks
Books
Height
Weight
Personality
So God have mercy on my withering soul
Dig me a hole
So that one day I can gently rest
What I call my mess
Within the confines of said hole
Place my soul
Let me rest
Because God...I can't feel any less
