Assertive Hindrance
If you've ever wondered why I'm always leaping,
It's likely because the situation is hilarious.
I'm strong, but what I surely fancy is weeping.
I envy tears to run down my eyes, imperious.
I went in the opposite direction from the charter.
I found my soul to be less than I had expected.
Yet, I had twice the courage of my partner.
With a calm resolve to my power, I connected
While I seldom have fine dreams,
I realize that adversity destroys hope.
I'm bursting at the seams; my eyes gleam.
Let me grow by flying wings over my slope.
In our thoughts, on paper, or in utterances, we are.
It's a conscious rally; I mustn't travel afar.
I reflect on myself while sitting on a shelf.
Is it a template of a hindrance toward myself?
