I struck a nerve
There is pain in the truth
A phrase which holds water
Of this you are proof
I struck a nerve
Put a spanner in your works
Disturbing the place
Where your dark secret lurks
I struck a nerve
And you call me a child
I've kept my calm
It is you who's gone wild
I struck a nerve
With one little fact
Dignity's a virtue
Try to keep it intact

Hello, I'm a 38 year old male from east London. All post's are subject to change ( for the better, I hope)
'Don't bother,' I murmured, but distinctively loud enough for him to hear. A tear fell, but was soon discarded as he brushed his hand across my face, sweeping the hair out of my eyes.
I could hear my heartbeat. I could also hear footsteps getting nearer. One, two, three, pause. One, two, three, pause. They were checking the boxes for fugitives. Fugitives like me. Damn it.
Dear Squatter The security system won't let me in. What are the codes new that you have changed it to. I hope that stuff about all the sex is just crazy stuff made up in your head.
#augustwriteaday. You come here to destroy. Well your chance is on this plate. I'm standing at these crossroads. So please don't make me wait. Your head is filled with lies.
Why do you stare at me stranger. Do I offend you Is it the way I walk Or the way I do my hair. Why do you stare at me stranger. Is it the way I talk The way I dress Do I confuse you.
Scare tactics won't work with me. I don't care if I die, just you see. For all I care you could threaten me with a knife. But let's faces it, I'm another one life.
Feelings of hate and rage Directed all at you I wish you weren't such a dickhead.
You're so sly, Don't even try. You think you've got a hold, If I ever find out my story was told.
No problems, your poetry has been great, can't wait to read more, I still have to look at your older posts.😄
