[Poem] Your Feelings

by Emmit Other

To whom do I owe the greater burden of trust

Burden of love

Burden of honor

The Persona that is paper plate thin and deep

Or who you really are my helix neighboor

I know who you are

Underneath the mush 

Underneath the lies

I know and see all you do

And more

Because I have had the blinders lifted

And I am allowed to hope

One day

you will take the hood off

Too

The one you dont know you are wearing

I wish someone had told me

Really told me

And they did

But they never said it quite way

Until it happened anyway

I see a lot

But I dont see everything

Like the key to unlock your chains

Or I would

Believe me

I know there is a key

Just not what it is

So sorry if

Right now

I only have

this

HAMMER

instead
