PEEL ME AWAY
by Bill DeClercq
Peel me away.
Peel away the me that laughs and smiles
Peel away the nut who clowns around to get your laugh
Peel away the depressed, the sorrow.
That's right , like an onion
But don't cry.
Peel away the aspiring priest
Peel away the nerd who (supposedly) always studies
Peel away the I.Q., the brains.
Peel away. I'm not who you think
I Am.
Maybe, If you keep Peeling,
you'll find the
Real Me.
a priceless Gem, special and
unique
Don't forget to Keep Peeling
Aha! You've done it. All that's Left
is the mean defensive layer. Be careful
It's a tough defense.
Be assured that the
Real Me
Is waiting, wanting to be your friend.
WaitaminuteStopHoldonCeaseStopQuititNononononooo!!!!!
Maybe, there is no
Real Me.
Maybe, there is no
Gem
Maybe, you killed Me, peeling those layers.
What if I'm not really there?
Wait, if I'm not in there, then how can I be scared
Since "I" does not exist. OR DO I?
Thank you. I've been waiting for a long time for
someone to
Set Me Free
Because I couldn't Set Myself Free.
Thanks again, friend.
