Hide the Girl (7/16/07)

I breathe belief that every thing I see
Will release this leash and set me free
Just check on me and dent the screen
Press your face to the door and let me scream
I bleed and I mean every word I say
My rhyme’s so clean in this impure way
Turn face away but it won’t break the wave
This sound’s delivered through vein and hate
Go take a step and delve inside
Magnify the lines that run across my mind
Stare through my eyes at the world I see
And thank your god that you’re not me
I can’t help to stop the way that I feel
A cynical critic, I’ll start to peel
Through the layers to the pride you steal
Don’t go too far, this might be real
The wheel’s are spinning with no traction
I feel it catch, a chain reaction
Actions that hold no rhyme or purpose
Chapter seven sixty of this mindless circus
Three rings I flirt with will leave me hurtless
Cold to the bone, I know for certain
These means I learn with are sure not standard
But they’re strong and fist pump handed
Understand it? Why can’t you get it?
It’s true and real if I have said it
In rhyming sentence, I breathe and vent it
To hide the girl I see presented

Notes: I saw someone I didn’t want to see and this was my way of dealing with it. I didn’t want to think about negativity, so I let my mind drift and catch a beat. It’s fast paced and simplistic in structure, but it’s smooth, in a way. By the way, as hinted, this is my 760th poem.
