Image for the poem change

change

 
carry me away on the winds
suffocate my tears
as I say goodbye to dreams

my soul is lost to pain
in the darkness, we lose who we were
no longer will I try to change
who I am currently is honestly me

there is no place among the faces
where I am free to be me
a pagan witch with a natural ability

artistic but selfish with my personality
I don't like people
I've tried to blend in
but I've found too much of myself
on the cutting room floor

this isn't a movie
and I don't want to be just extra on the set
to do a remake of the Stepford wives

originality traded for friends the investment is too high
so I don't give much of myself to people
If I like you I'll buy you something and we'll talk for a few minutes
until it gets too real and I'm out of there

don't invite me anywhere
sorry I don't like being hijacked
where I'm at your mercy
wondering when this day will be over
