Storyteller

By Nehema

Visions of dualities

Personification through

Colorful personalities

Though mine be untrue

Birthed in my imagination

Set free through a keyboard

Satisfying the needy starvation

Sometimes striking a chord

Middle aged and decaying

My mind needs renovating

Ideas and ideals fraying

Past life deteriorating

Comforting and wise

It's the lies I despise

No need for disguise

Truth = the greatest prize

Thanks Cipher, indeed. Honesty builds the strongest foundation and I've found it to be the simplest way to combat fear.

You are a wonderful storyteller... however close to the truth it may be...your words bite and make a mark. No silly veils to hide behind- just tell it like it is. I love your words. Well done my friend.

A truth seeker, there are only a few of us left! Well done Baby Girl and since this was for the class, I noticed how your rhyme scheme changed in the second half. Not a bit of a distraction and well done!
