I'm Speaking To You

I am a figment of my own fantasy,

I dreamt myself up,

fabricated myself.


An authentic being,

illuminated by the inspiration

of everything I see, hear,

touch and consume.


In my past, I was blank as the pages I fill,

today I create life out of ink and squiggles.


Are you alive today?

Are you hanging by an inch of what I say?


Listen, my heart is empty of anguish,

it's been poured out on paper.


I'm alive today,

even if my body has decayed.
