Steps

When does it all stop? If it ever does The mind and soul are weakened The heart still tries to pump blood even after being victimized The road to happiness leads off a cliff The ego is shot Confidence lacks confidence which leads to defeat Hour hand has already struck The sound of the bells have begun to ring Too late The manipulation bug has commenced eating away at the cerebral infecting the fight or flight response You get what you ask for in life and sometimes more Supporting cast is non-existent It exists but not prevalent when need be Watch your steps Those steps are running out Those steps are in short supply Those steps can be the beginning of something magnificent or the ending to a good story Those steps can appropriately identify the W’s of the English language Those steps are exactly what they are Steps with very heavy pressure of weight That lack genuine thought Artificial love that’s being fried to an endless cook Take a look at your prints you left behind Are they memorable? Do they make you proud?

Thanks again. Sometimes I am hesitant to display my writings because of the fear of not connecting with people. So it's really gratifying that someone has enjoyed it and that positively about it. Thanks again for the encouragement.
