WHO AM I?

WHO AM I?

A Poem by EMMIE


I am not a poet
I am the truth spitter
Don’t call me Christian
Call me disciple of my own religion
I am not a prophet of words
I am the prophecy
I am the words
I am the future
Plant a seed in me
And look at how it grows
Love and pain do go together
Love, however, I am not
I am pain
I’m the sorrow of tomorrow
I’ll corrupt your good morals
Your sacred feelings I will borrow
Step on them and burn them
And then I will return them
I will make you black inside
Smoke and fire go together
Smoke, however I am not
I AM FIRE
I will turn to dust everything you got
I’m the sorrow of tomorrow
And I am coming for you soon

Impressively strong in your voice as the truth rears its ugly head. Remind me to never step on your toes! I admire those who bare themselves so completely with their writing, who don't hold back for whatever reason. As writers we brave our writing out into the world, and as it should be, it should remain unabashed with emotions and feelings - bring out the truth for all the world to see. Though there is a thread of darkness within this poem, it isn't anything that should be viewed as something negative as many of those who aren't writers cannot seem to understand that there is beauty within the darkness and within that darkness there lies truth. I love how this reads, amazing flow that slips from the tongue so easily, with venomous wording and honesty intermingled with power. Fantastic

"WHO AM I?
I am not a poet
I am the truth spitter "
No weakness in this amazing poem. From the opening lines. You had my attention. Each line adding to the strength of this poem. Your poetry could easily be published in many magazines. Thank you for the outstanding poem.
