The Barbed Wire Captive


🀐 As a grown man, I was left naked and afraid

by the realization of my present vulnerability.

Expressing my truths for the very first time

to a hostile audience, I now know to be strangers.

Stabbed, torn, ripped apart

Just a barbed wire captive;

Imprisoned in darkness

By society’s cold, dead heart.

Yearning to be free, 

to be loved; 

to find peace and happiness,

and the warmth of a summer’s beach.

I'm discovering me...      Welcome to my journey.      Welcome to my life.      Welcome to my existence.      Welcome to my strife. Here I am, discovering me....      I was never really a fan of kiss and tell.      I've never been a fan of kissing--      Hell. And the only reason I ever rushed towards sex,      Was because that is what society expects.      Still, I put it off as long as I could,     ...
