TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT
Part I: COWARDICE
LOVE IS PAINFUL
I remember seeing a stranger in the shopping mall...
He filled my dreams and my poetry for months after
and I only saw him that one time.
And now this man has inherited his legacy.
This innocent man that i protect by denying my feelings...
And DELEATING his name.
Protecting myself or hurting?
I can't tell the difference any more.
CENSORSHIP IS PAINFUL
I've seen him more than just once, but once would
have been enough...And here I am weeping for the simple
pleasure of suffering over his eyes...
-His Dark Sparkling Eyes-
He told me that he likes my suffering.
Strange that he is the emotion that he so desperately defines...
He inspires it like no other...
He is a junkie for the pain that he deals.
I came out of that party years ago...
But we all knew that...
CENSORSHIP IS NOT LOVE
I haven't felt this desire since virginity.
So sharp and so deep...
Piercing...
Wounding...And
Wanting Only For More!
CENSORSHIP IS DEATH
TO LOVE IS TO DIE
I WILL DIE TO PROTECT HIM
I WOULD DIE TO LOVE HIM
THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS
TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT

FOR NO ONE AT ALL...BECAUSE I LACK
THE COURAGE OF MY CONVICTION.
