just for you
"HOW OFTEN HAVE YOU CROSSED “THAT LINE” DRAWN FOR & BY YOUR SELF?
HOW LONG HAVE YOU SURVIVED A PAWN TO OTHERS’ HELP?
HOW OFTEN HAVE YOU STEPPED OUTSIDE OF WHAT YOU KNOW AS “BEST” INTO THE REALM OF “BETTER OR FOR WORSE,” ARE YOU WEDDED TO THE TEST??
OR DO YOU REST YOUR MIND ON THE WORD OF A BOOK, THAT HAS NO EYES TO LOOK (& SEE [FOR] ITSELF)?
HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU SPEND TRYING TO BEND THAT BOOK APART AT ITS SEAMS UNTIL THE SPINE IS WEAK ENOUGH TO KEEP IT OPEN?
HOW MANY HEARTS HAVE YOU BROKEN, BASED ON NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION?
HOW MANY OF YOUR FLAWS HAVE YOU DEEMED OKAY ENOUGH TO ACCEPT?
HOW MUCH SPACE ARE YOU WILLING TO FREE BY FILLING IT W/FORGET?
HOW MUCH DAYLIGHT DO YOU LEND TO WAIT… TO HIDING BEHIND ANOTHER PERSON’S FACE,
& HOW MUCH OF YOUR VOICE DO YOU WASTE ON DEFEND (JUST TO VALIDATE SOMEONE ELSE’S CHOICE OF THOUGHT)?
HOW MUCH OF WHAT’S BEEN TAUGHT IS JUST SCRIPTED NOISE THAT SOMEONE BOUGHT?"
