you’re my inspiration
my bomb, my detonation
my dream, my ambition
my soul’s nutrition
my mind’s beautiful contamination
my heart’s destruction
my verb, my complicated conjunction
my unknown, my deduction
my country, my world and my nation
you’re always in my imagination
for thinking, my obstacle and obstruction
like art, my abstraction
my movie, my light, my action
my hard and never-ending mission
to heaven, my ticket of admission
my favorite place, my destination
my impossible, my sadness’s foundation
my nightly apparition
my far-away sight, my eyes’ vision
my intuition
my broken heart’s demolition
my happiness subtraction
my only choice, my election
my sanity’s dissection
my science, my chemical reaction
my love, my heart’s only affection
another mistake, my correction
my wood, my fire, my ignition
my hard times, my friction
my drug, my addiction
the objective of my rhyme, my inspiration.
