Poem
The journey of the inner soul is an adventure of the mind The fear of failure dominates the path you cannot find You start rebelling as a youth to soothe your sorted past Surrendering to lethal ways, emotions that don’t last The scheme of life then sustains a disregard for good The psyche has fooled you once again to think you understood Matters of the heart incite a tear from God’s own eye He challenges your distant stance but he hears no reply Motivated by your pain, avenging shattered dreams The choice is made to blame yourself, the end justifies the means Retaliation takes it’s toll, revenge is not so sweet Alone your left to lick your wounds, experiencing defeat Your pursuit now takes a twisted turn to rectify your wrongs Repentance comes a bit too late you find you don’t belong Consumed with sorrow for the loss you fall on bended knee You plead with time to take you back or end the misery Adjusting time to fit your needs you choose a solitary path Never daring to open up to expose a bitter wrath Foolish clues are left behind on the passage of mistrust You quench your fears determined pessimism is a must Attractiveness now obsolete, a body once was fine Gives up the struggle to compete and now just prays for time Much too busy to contest nature’s irritating ruse No longer able to invest in dreams you’ll never use An aggressive self-assertion, an annoying point of view Assist in the discomfort of the idle part of you The arrogance of freedom and the mortifying pride Yearns for simple innocence left withering inside The taste of life is bitter sweet, God’s plans have been revealed You try your best to seize control while waiting to be healed.
