![]() ShamefulA Poem by LeslieNoel
Shame is a figment
That imprints upon one's imagination It sits and gathers dust On the shelf in my mind Sometimes I find It's shriveled up voice Whispering, "You must!" What must I do? And in what way do I follow through? With a camouflage dream So invisible even I can't even see it The constraints of age Are but a manmade shackle As if the human race doesn't have enough of those? It raises my hackles Why add an invisible fence Chaining yourself to it like a bound beast? Age, it makes us tense People live life like they have an expiration date Live life at your own rate You don't have to dreams By a certain date Live for you It's never too late
