The Deep Inside Me

Contemplating on my brevity, I find sincerity in my integrity- I’m a visionary with a muse so deep I write with intensity. Reflections and introspections bring alleviation and deliberation- My sedative is to be meditative, as I get lost in thought and concentration. Introversion and deep illusion bring me no concrete conclusion- When I objectify and rectify all I see is this delusion. Inside I hide, and outside I confide- But when caught in between realities, I truly coincide. Self-examination on my creation, brings thoughts of intimidation- But the bigger picture’s explanation, gives light to this strange fascination. I think I may try to live another day of grace, but you can tell I’m weak from the lines upon my face. I wonder if my depth is deep enough to survive, but I’m shallow and hallow, for I cannot stay alive. May 14, 2017

Interesting, the angle you adopt to write this friend...introspection of a poet in self conflict. Very well penned with much to say. :) Sunita

Congratulations for the poem and for the struggle. And since you are not deep and hallow, may you be blessed with a long and introspective life. Kai
