          Why emotions explode loose
          like rushing rivers to detach
          and crumble stringings of boundaries
          when blazing damages could hatch;
          why my wordings seem belittled
          by reality's sold depiction,
          how shameful was sensibility
          upon strangers' crowned discretion;

          my uncertainty's so certain,
          my rotten corpse, still breathin'
          what there has silence either though
          but how embarrassed is needin';
          how mortified, what worthlessness
          I pridefully hold possession,
          beneath a something pseudo-science;
          to loathe eternal in procession;

           maybe too loosened, I believed,
           maybe my freedom's freely fed
           by tastes no cautious of willed wisdom
           where I, my brightness, darkly bled;
           maybe compression before confession,
           maybe resistance before persistence,
           for better secrets be beautified
           by no regretting nor repentance;

           perhaps, befriended we've become,
           my dearest silence kissing mine
           arousing pleasure beyond pleasure
           from fleeting feathers intertwined;
           glad I, crossing winds of ours
           in breezy punches under cloak,
           cleansing wishes and intentions
           only feeding on leisure lones.
