Reflecting tonight, I ask myself
Has all of this been genuine? Can I ever be the same again? Never before have I felt Ever so fragile, fractured, yet This is now the memory I can’t forget. Carefully navigate this path A heartache that can’t be denied But maybe I’ll escape the power held by time. There is no sound to breaking hope But pure destruction now controlled I disengage from the emptiness untold. For once unconquerable, I rise An untamed strength formed by the stars Whispering an illustrious faith unmarred. Fueled from within; dreams still unlived Life resonates ever faithfully Never too broken to be repaired - just carefully. If nothing we do truly matters Then ALL that matters is what we do So I search my soul ever looking to unveil the truth. Without filter, I share my world No hesitation or regret Intensity fuels growth; I must not forget. I allow my light to shine unmasked Forgetting some get overwhelmed Maybe even now circumstantially beyond my realm. Or perhaps too lost to ever be found Inevitable change but optional growth But forever forward is my zealous oath. Experience fuels and innovates. The loudest mind I’ve ever had A now elegant flow from the once beautifully mad. Resolutely calm I dance once more These storms have washed and dulled the pain I’ve lost the world, but the universe I’ve gained.
