lies of the ruiner

I do not create
I am not the man to make things from nothing
you think me magic but I am the ruiner

I do not create
I depend on the waste of others
you expect miracles from my dirty hands

I do not create
I fall short of every goal no matter how close
you praise and beg with eyes, out weighing my feet.

I do not create
I run from all my self assumed pressures
you unendingly seek to smile from my closeness

I do not create
                        (because I can't)
I ruin beautifully
                        (because I can)
you show me the mirror
                         (and the source of these words)




You create
You are faithful in all things






I am made in your image
