Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my daily poetry blog. The following poems are improvised based on my day, general reflections, or by just allowing my mind to cruise in neutral without a filter. I have been working on this for something around two years now and have amassed a lot of words. You can either go through them page by page, or check out the "Hall of Better Poems" option in the right column. Please feel free to comment on what you like or dislike, and also subscribe below if you like this sort of thing. Thanks!

(typically I will write down my ideas on paper throughout the day and I may not get in front of a computer to transfer it. So I then dump a few days worth of poems at once.)

Partners

Is it pride that keeps me from lying?
In truth we crumble and fall further,
Widening the chasm with each honest answer.
I could choose to be,
The me you think I am,
The personality you expect.
Each time the mask is lowered,
And the truth is revealed,
The earth swells,
The bow breaks,
And the mist engulfs me.

I should have known it was destined for destruction,
As soon as the word "worshiped" was uttered.
