A chapter in the book My Life in words

See You!

by Jaq Cee



I did see through
that smooth veneer
I always knew
this day was near

my perception
was always right
I chose to ignore
this foresight

seduced by words
with intellect
beguiled by verse
so circumspect

I know my failings--
but do you
you took my heart
and pierced it through

a promise of great
things to come
empty dead words
every one.

my life's been hard
but I don't whine
horrors in childhood
didn't define

chose to live
and I survived
but could have ceded--
suicide

now I am strong
and understand
my life worth more
which I demand
