4 roles pt.1
I have chosen the role as a liar.
Walking in dry grass with words of fire.
The reaction, the attention, the thrill.
12 more beers and a handful of pills.
I have chosen the role as a hater.
Living my life as if it's live theater.
Here to entertain and please you.
What else is a humble narcissist to do?
I have chosen the role as a king.
Bow before me and kiss my rings.
You were warned of the consequences.
Now it’s time to reclaim all those expenses.
I have chosen the role as a fool.
And I am the one that fooled you.
In the end I always get the last laugh.
Because it was you that fell for my trap.

so far you're my favourite poet in this website. good rhyming and rhytm, and your choice of words brings forward vivid paitings; audio-visiual scenes soaked in deep emotions, my imagination follows it smoothly and experiences the story to the fullest, that's almost as if I were watching a movie, and there's also something yet to come, or at least the poems leave this lingering untold sensation... tantilising

Thank you kindly for that comment. I was a having a rough night and just read that. Though it's still going to be a rough night, it will be just a tad more bearable. I am pleased you have found a connection to my poems. That is such a beautiful thing. Thank you again, sincerely. It was the best comment I have ever gotten on any of my writes anytime in my life... It's been a long time.
