Knights to Guard Meaningless Artifacts:
I
hold on to Meaningless artifacts
Did
you know that?
I
always think someone will want it.
I
never think; wouldn't someone have to care
That
I’m here.
I
stay locked away from society
From
the familiarity
Like
its just another drop of acid
To
force into my black lungs
I
hide because I am of all of it
Then
he came along
And
he makes me feel
He
makes me into this stupid cliché
And
I can't seem to care
Because
my biggest secret
My
unholy confusion
Is
that he makes me smile
And
that’s just fine.
He
makes me want a
Knight
in shinning armor
If it were him to save me
From my purgatory
I guess it wouldn't be too bad.
I guess I could handle that.
Lovely prose. Deep and intimate and well said. "I guess I could handle it" is the perfect last line.
