A Fistful of Words: Truth

By Justen Safadago

A Fistful of Words became a work in progress after Sept 11. I was not born of a hardship and grew up with little issues that gave me this poetic voice. This was my only way to express what ideas and thinking process I was blessed with could be shown to the world. This book is just a compile of writings I have made from my youth to now. The interpretations of the writings come from the mind of the reader. I can only explain between the lines there are sexual references, political views, world view, religious phrases, life events, depression, hatred, rage and love in the text. But, these words are intended for the reader to capture the meaning after the reading. If no true meaning comes from one writing just keep reading to find the one that inspires or touches you when reading. This has been a lifelong dream to be able to create a book of how a mind can work when given the opportunity to express words in code. The code is simple to break if you just read and do not try to translate by each word. The meaning and purpose is for the reader to bring meaning from the text on a personal note. Do not be blind when reading the language of the words; create your own diction meaning. Let the writings bring meaning and understand it is only words, not fact.

Essence

Time is of the essence

Essence is which I do not have

See I have been thinking about her

For the longest time

How she just came in

Invaded my mind

Stealing everything of mine

Taking over my whole body

Including my senses

I cannot deny that I am nervous

When she comes around

Lost when she is gone

I go to talk

It is her I speak of

I go to lay down to sleep

She is who I dream of

I go to write

It is her name that is written

I go to read

See her name through the pages

I pick up the phone

It is her who I call

When I am alone

I think that she is next to me

As she is here

But not close enough

To far away to touch

So close to never let go

Bearing unbelievable feelings

Always on my mind

With something new

With something old

Brings a beginning

Written at 13 yrs old

Identity

Can you look at yourself?

The same way you did

Back in elementary

When all you did was play with friends

Like it was never going to end

Thinking life was easy

Living day by day

With a smile on your face

Cause nothing worried you

As you grew up

People changing all
