The Power of I is hurting

I'm sorry if I cant say I
Because The power of I
is trying to hide,
Speaking in you, that, and he
Because first person is starting
to hurt me,

Pronouncement is an announcement
to his true heart and mind,
An investment that is absent
from the start to end
of the poems line,

He is trying to suppress memories
from killing words,
He, yes he, is a running coward,
He cant say his own voices
He limited his own choices,

Stories covered with dense syllables
The power of I forgot what was beautiful,
Power of I is a lie trying to hide
Because he's trying not
to cry.
