Misconstrued
I encourage you,
to find meaning in it's depths;
to open a blind eye in fear;
and then to hold that moment dear.
I would hope for you to open-
a closed ear in times of desperation
so that you may benefit,
from inner restoration.
what is seen,
is still emotionally unclear-
and what is heard is misconstrued;
for truth cannot be seen,
and this worlds darkness I cannot elude.
how does one foot-
follow directly behind the other?
when does knowledge-
take form in action?
and when do words-
produce the desired reaction?
I encourage you to speak-
when you feel that you should not,
and I encourage you leak-
the truth, which you have thought.
