Oppostion
Subtly curios, not to bash your prose
no offense to anyone, but your beliefs are all unknown
teach me what you sacrifice to become a union of compromise
i'd like to know
lightly i tread through the banks of your mind
as you show me what you "know"
i've seen around the bend, explored what you neglect
and silently i listen to your unexplored expressions
as you bury them with doubt and worry
and challenge your ideas
as you stare me down like a deer in the headlights
should i shout out loud and scatter your favorite sound
and watch your withering petals fall to the ground
as you obliviate yourself to regret
and become the reason for your neglected effects.
