As I see myself

~ thereluctantpoet

Come and Enjoy This!

Keep it alive

The mirror shows me what I want to see

Me a humble pawn, see myself as the king

Ruling the kingdom with a generous heart

A king fair and just, always ready to listen 

The reality cannot interfere with my dreams 

The desires surpass the solid facts on ground 

I don’t care what the worlds thinks of me

I hold myself in high esteem and that all that matters

A Best Friend is Better Than a Diamond

~ thereluctantpoet

Written in Blue Mercury

If I found a really big beautifully cut diamond,
I would break it in 2 and give you half.
Of course, it would then be worthless,
but we could share this worthlessness together as best friends.
True friends because our friendship was so powerful
that we felt compelled to destroy an incredibly valuable diamond
breaking it in half rendering it worthless to prove our friendship.
When we could have just sold the thing and had a ton of money
and then been incredibly good friends with a ton of money.
Seriously, I don’t know why we’re friends.
You’re always talking me into these crazy things.
Do I even know you?
I love you.
Give me a hug.
You are my best friend.
Get off me you weirdo!
No! You can’t borrow my toothbrush.
