Critical

You let yourself wander,
But never be lost.
In words or actions;
With or without Intentions.
Never trusting
Those vapid tongues
Sweetened by "Experience."
Smiles can shroud the ugliest deceptions.

I caution you
Of words from closed mouths and
Warmth in icy waters;
Ribcages full of apologies.

But you--YOU are NOT asleep.
Awake in your dreams,
Painting a Monet in a black and white world.
Knowing that you know nothing
And that you
Have vision in a blind world.

You choose to leave footprints behind
Knowing
They wash away in the sea,
Just to know that they EXISTED.
