The Power in my Mind

The Power in my Mind

Here residing in my head

Your words are spoken, truth unsaid

Plead forgiveness if you must

Of your tongue, I’ll never trust

Consider this my final warn

Reach for me and you I’ll scorn

Instead, embrace your denied part

To warmly find your beating heart

Emotions with forked tongue are dead

Still, you reside in my head.

Thank you for reading! This is my first attempt at writing an acrostic poem, as challenged by Thavien Yliaster. (I think I need more practice.)

Don’t let the hypocrites live rent-free in your head. It’s time to evict!
