Poem Title:
Poem
Written: June 24, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ In the depths of my spirit, I found solace. I witnessed adornments and embrace. Garments and clothes, a world you would create, Surrounded yourself in a realm so sedate. I lent her weapons, a shield from the harsh reality, A different face, a disguise for her sanity. I saw all that touched her—her desires and dreams. In her quest for something beyond, it seems. In strange and thorny actions, I followed the lead. Not knowing where they would lead us, indeed. A spirit seemed apathetic, lost in her own mind. However, I stayed faithful and shined Besides her resting body, I would stay awake. Strive to suss out why she sought to be opaque. Her vow to alter life, to possess secret keys, I knew she was searching for ease. But I knew deep down, she was only seeking Never truly finding, always peeking. Her kindness enchanted me, and I was its captive. Constrained by her love, I felt so adaptive. No other soul could withstand that despair. But I stayed by her side, showing I cared. I existed in her soul, as a vacant palace. Empty and abandoned, a mere space. I was dependent on her, a shadow in her light. But what did she luck with my colorless plight? She wouldn't improve me; or bestow me to shine. I was just a pawn in her grand design. Sadly mortified, I would strain to understand, But she would shrug her shoulders as if I were bland. "I understand you," I would say with a sigh. But she would brush it off, leaving me to wonder why. In the depths of her spirit, I found solace. But within myself, I felt a growing malice. I knew I was just a spectator, a bystander. Watching as she sought something grander. Yet, I stuck by her side over wide and thin. Her spirit held beauty and light within. And though I may not be the one she sought, I cherished the moments and the lessons she taught. In the depths of her spirit, I found solace and peace. A glimpse into a world where all troubles cease Though I may never truly understand her quest, I will support her and gift her my best.
