Discourse of Reason by Mike Williams 03/16/2016 @ 10:10 P.M.

Don’t tell me what to think,
Don’t tell me how to feel.
Don’t tell me what is and isn’t
Realy, realy, realy, real.

Don’t tell me that you love me,
Don’t just ignore my pain.
Don’t neglect me time
And again, again, again.

I am only human,
I have my dreams, my hopes, and my pride.
You keep saying that you love me,
But your actions say that you lied.

I keep on forgiving,
But I can never quite forget.
In the midst of living,
I feel far too much regret.

I’m just a shadow on the wall,
I’m standing too close to the brink.
So don’t tell me what I feel,
And don’t assume to know what I think.

120 words, 20 lines, and 5 stanzas.
