Angelica Tao Poet Rhyme

I Hope To Feel This Way Again Someday

I woke up and finally felt motivation from within. 

What I didn’t know at the time, was that this feeling was sin. 

And that I would be greatly punished for seeking relief. 

To accept the happiness that would soon cause grief. 

Soon, I would be forced to choose between the pain I had always known-

Or staying as a joyful zombie whose dreams are shown. 

My first feelings of delight-

Would soon turn to nightmares of blight.

The butterflies that finally would abound-

Would transform into evil ravens that would surround. 

I suppose I shall always remember-

Or perhaps I must surrender my memories like warmth in December. 

Someday, I may feel this way again. 

But for now I shall allow my scars to reappear, and allow that tender pain to appear again.
