Far From Flawless

A Poem

By David McZacharyPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Let me begin by admitting that I'm a bastard

I get plastered when I have the time; it helps the time pass faster

Another human being recovering from my last disaster

I'm a product of my own predictions; I have scars that are self-inflicted

I've been to places of the deepest darkness

I come from a land of the broken hearted

My time was spent before it started

I can understand if you leave because I'm far from flawless

All my past is just ammo against me

Previous relationships have left me crass minded and empty

So bad sometimes that being inside sounds so tempting

I go blind and though I shine my demise disguise it's self as the best thing

I'm wrestling, in my mind whether I'm cursed or I'm blessed man

In my verses I could confess things that would leave a person with a wrecked brain

Regrets and pain about deceptive dames

And ignorant mother fuckers who don't respect a damn thing

About the Creator

My words are for the lonely, the brokenhearted, the hurt and angry, the depressed and the lost. I hope they help you to truly heal and to find yourself again. I hope they are comforting; so that you know you are not alone. You will make it!
