Entrusting New Desires

By Michael avantPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Letting go of all the pain I fell

Into a trap,

With every intention to fly my wings would not

Flap.

I was searching for the applause but only heard the

Thunder clap,

The bottle containing my emotions is missing its

Cap.

Out of the two shoulders I was blessed with I share with you

The cold one,

I despise lies as if I never told one.

I over see your perception and understand the

Deception,

They say nobody is perfect, so I'm trying to be the

Exception.

I fall asleep in my shoes ready to chase

A dream,

Confronted by inner demons who aren't as bad as they

Seem.

Answers I seek about the direction of my

Life,

And why the fork in my road was replaced with

A knife.

I use it to cut the tension, or to install

Fear,

Then I realize that's not why I was put

Here.

In this circus like world walking the tight rope is one of my

Talents,

As I listen to the whispers of those who wish I'd lose my

Balance.

When I touch down, it will be in Triumph! as I make the ground

Tremble,

And make it known that I'm not the monster that you claim I

Resemble.

Hello fellow creators. In short I'm nothing more than a very big fan of this art form we all love called Poetry. Playing with words and thoughts, bending and twisting ideas is all part of this therapeutic yet challenging past time.
