Once upon a time

I was once a happy man;

and then I found a mirror

that taught me how to hate.

~

I could once talk to people;

and then I spoke to me

and learnt the art of guilt.

~

I enjoyed looking around;

and then I looked within

and learnt the depth of darkness.

~

I could once hear the birds that sing;

and then I heard my heart

and learnt what deafness means.

~

I could once smile unknowingly;

and then I saw them laugh

and learnt how to compare.

~

I could once just be me;

and then I saw them all

and forgot who I am.

I like these words of me

I like the sweet words:

I speak to me-

Not oft do I:

but it is the sweetest.

~

Dripped in joy,

soaked in contentment

its a voice speaking through me:

but not my mouth.

~

I like these sweet words:

I speak to me:-

they whisper of dreams

of ships of planes of floors and ceilings

~

I like these words of me:-

these words that make me smile

~

I like these words of me:-

these words that make me me.
