I Will Not

Written by Sam Rawlings on Saturday the 23rd of January 2010

I will not bend, and so,
does that mean I should be broken?
Because to me bending is more painful than breaking,
is an endurance I am not prepared for.
Too often, the only attempt at making sense from death is suffering.
Too often, we believe that anything less in life is a blessing, is a gift.
Therefore, as we try to hold on to our perceptions,
of the expected,
of what it is to be satisfied; so it becomes...

time that dreams of the next minds,
of all the things we will not see.
