The Metamorphosis

The Metamorphosis

A Poem by Miles Wilburn
"

Very dark, very angry

"
I feel a deep change in me
a change so deep, impossible to see
starting with an inability to speak
Some solitude will eventually be all I seek

Gotta get out of this f*****g place
going mad in my head, possibly insane
you keep leaving, probably wearing lace
going to see a new man, you're not gonna complain

There exists deep down a hidden pain
a change so deep it cuts my veins
a deep dark secret kept in chains
If I revealed you'd never feel the same

We stand by the ocean in the sinking sand
Praying for a place where we can firmly stand
I guess that place doesn't exist anymore
A metamorphosis in heart, in mind and soul


I'll release that secret deep down in mind
undo the chains, release the times
I remember the past, and I remember the words
The secret words I wanted to say at our worst.

My secret is that I think you're a coward
With no willing to try and no place to go
You spent all that money, time and love.
And now that everything is over you'll have nothing to show

You're time here is useless, you don't have any friends
everything is red, I guess this is where I end
I can't escape myself it seems
a constant metamorphosis in me
changing everything I see
