Starving Normalization (2012)

Starving Normalization (2012)

A Poem by Paper Forks
"

It's been awhile. I thought I should share one of my favourite poems I wrote in the year 2012

"
A chanced encounter to experience something real;
within arm's length, I grasped your reality reel.

With nothing to ask, expected nothing;
yet somehow I managed to pull you in.
Foreign emotions, they kept on coming,
sooner than later, I made you my queen.

I enslaved myself to my affection,
my subconsciousness kept growing so thin.
Depth of my past became our affliction,
now I see nothing but my future sin.

Nevertheless, I kept my devotion
and just gave in to my lecherous greed.
I noticed our bond of imperfection,
I must realize the most tragic deed.

The day has come for me to actualize
plans I set out to grant my selfish need.
Feelings are gone, I just now realize;
to set things right, I must make you bleed.

A chanced encounter: I experienced something real;
within arm's length, I took your reality reel.

I liked the poem. Filled with powerful emotion.
"I enslaved myself to my affection,
my subconsciousness kept growing so thin.
Depth of my past became our affliction,
now I see nothing but my future sin."
The above lines were my favorite. The strong description allowed the reader to feel the need. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

If I have to describe myself in three words it would be narcissistic, conceited, egoistic, indecisive. Befriend me with caution: I bite. Note: I will be ruthless in my reviews. I will not sugarc.. more..
