Endure

Chipauah Kanpol!
… My body is a canuas
My neighborhood is its centerpiece.
Through sadistic pain,
I have sculpted my flesh into a beautiful masterpiece.

An obedient soldier,
accepts an uncertain fate.
In a stone and iron purgatory is where my soul now stays.
With an armor of bronze skin, black ink,
tattooed tears, past calendar years…

Choices made.
Absolutely no regrets.
This is what I am.
This is what I do.
This is what lies,
beneath my prison blues.

I am only a man

I am only a man.
Nothing more. Nothing less.
1 mind, 1 body…
Maybe even a soul.

I am someone’s enemy,
The source of someone’s hate.
I can be ugly.
I am the reason behind someone’s pain.

I am your pusher.
The reason for your release.
The source of your pleasure,
I can be as beautiful as can be.

I am your dreamlover.
How often do you smile in your sleep?
Deep down, I’m the one you’re wanting to see.

I am only a man,
enduring life’s high’s and lows.
I am only a man,
but I can be so, so much more.
