ReinstateA Poem by Joe PalmerAnd as quick as you arrived, you return from whence
thy came. No remorse, sympathy, no sign of pain. I understand now, life is built upon simple pleasures, of which you weren’t the most simple, but brought the most joy, eccentrically pleasing in just the smallest of measures. And as hard as I try, you will no doubt cast a blind eye, as if you have severe dementia, please baby, let’s resume our adventure? We had love... that sacred emotion,the binding, healing sense that causes so commotion. And maybe we let it slip, like the bigger dipper, we rose high the sunk into the dip, such a trip. Yet common knowledge reminds us, that naturally, gravity, will reinstate the coaster to its original plane, nothing lost nothing gained. Free to re-live its journey, just with different people in different seats, Still to complete the most marvellous and challenging feats. I urge you darling, to see past the materialistic world, that you so dearly craved, Of cheap thrills, loud base lines, the same old same. I can give you something else, a sense of belonging, commitment, chivalry, A fresh breath of health. I can challenge you, and test, broaden you, evoke feelings yet to be expressed. Protective and engulfing maybe, but certain not dull, mundane, casual, You know I have difficulty with my emotions, I struggle to contain. Please realise your potential, detached from the norm, express yourself through me, Grow, develop, change, and go exponential. © 2011 Joe PalmerFeatured Review
