Poem Title:
Poem
You assumed I was not who I portrayed myself to be Though falsifying myself is not a trait that I possess Of all the reasons to deny me from which you had to choose This is the one that sits above the rest? Respectfully, I disagree, upon an educated opinion That you have simply chosen to not break tradition Refusing to step into the realm of the unknown Moving ahead of what your very past has shown To be an ever-repeating sequence of events Where time after time you are subdued by your fears Left only to drown in your rising flood of tears A common ground so prevelant it has become modern lore To witness the effects of the pain that bore Itself deep inside your mind Now escaping through your eyes Tears saying more than words ever could Clearly being heard above your cries That your wishes be heard, demanding respect Not to be confused with your utter regret For all you have refused to try Based solely on your bloated pride Masking what it is you truly desire to be All that you've aspired to be Here now with every trembling breath you take A revelation occurs, making its presence felt As you now know I was only there to help It was you who falsified your intentions to fit your needs Your life cracks and falls around you, as you're seen Reaching out for my loving hand Reaching for one last chance to stand today Reaching for the very hand you shunned away Extended, you grasp only the emptyness of the dark Emptyness that has become as real to you As the space you left within my heart Falling, your life now fades as fast as ever To live, you know your pride must be severed Will you have the strength to deny yourself this hollow death, And grant yourself the chance to take another breath? The decision is yours, wrong or right Suddenly, my image appears Possibly your final sight? My hand, now the one extended Reaches out with a message to be embedded "Here is your one and final chance to stand I'm offering you my forever loving hand To save you from this eternal fall Proving my love for you will conquer all" Accept, or Deny. Live, or Die.
