Letting go of all the pain I fell
Into a trap,
With every intention to fly my wings would not
Flap.
I was searching for the applause but only heard the
Thunder clap,
The bottle containing my emotions is missing its
Cap.
Out of the two shoulders I was blessed with I share with you
The cold one,
I despise lies as if I never told one.
I over see your perception and understand the
Deception,
They say nobody is perfect, so I'm trying to be the
Exception.
I fall asleep in my shoes ready to chase
A dream,
Confronted by inner demons who aren't as bad as they
Seem.
Answers I seek about the direction of my
Life,
And why the fork in my road was replaced with
A knife.
I use it to cut the tension, or to install
Fear,
Then I realize that's not why I was put
Here.
In this circus like world walking the tight rope is one of my
Talents,
As I listen to the whispers of those who wish I'd lose my
Balance.
When I touch down, it will be in Triumph! as I make the ground
Tremble,
And make it known that I'm not the monster that you claim I
Resemble.

Hello fellow creators. In short I'm nothing more than a very big fan of this art form we all love called Poetry. Playing with words and thoughts, bending and twisting ideas is all part of this therapeutic yet challenging past time.
