Surpassing Care
Introducing myself with confidence,
Trusting to find something with potential.
Once again, the skeleton of a beat
Soul. life gingerly drawn from the spirit.
Our loyalty should shine over our flaws,
But instead, our love is six feet under.
Deeper than the fabric of existence
In which no intelligence can muster.
Coming to the realization of hate,
And all unjust things that tear at the flesh.
Bubbling over with regret and woe
Is the only way to meet the new light.
Everyday i tell myself not to look
On the past, or my life will stay idle.
To look forward; however, is to see
The future in all of its potential.
Sometimes i see my care as wasted love.
Stretching myself too thin for your comfort
Was my finest tactic of misfortune.
Never again. This, I promise myself.
As the months pass, i believe in healing.
From a broken spirit, to a strong heart,
This damage will not go away, but i
Never can abandon my taxing effort.
