Unfettered

-

Dunno wat gud this wud do the existing blog, but I felt I had to write this thing...

I have my dream written down, I have my words to follow,

my path to undertake,

Awake I will from this

resolute slumber-

only when a certain shift is reached

till the next paradigm

i shall dream on

Unfettered go my dreams

as my walk

Memorable or not I vow to

dream unfettered

so i dont

awake to a hopeless dawn!

Television, which was in its infancy ...

A short riposte

-
                          ​                    Rather than simmer and fade away~                    a slow death                    Let our knowledge of each other spark treason and drive us apart-                    Rather than make unwieldy choices to live with,                    Let's learn to live without -                    Our questions.                    Let your fears be gentle on you, at nights, you will remember me by,                    And let my fables be drowned in silences as I put away the books t...
