You.A Poem by Liamesq
You've known pain more than others
Have seen the worst of most And often you may find yourself standing in the middle of a bridge Not wanting to go to either bank You know the true natures of both Their bleak realities you've read far too many times before A limbo, for sure, but never one which may cripple you You know yourself; a strong sense of identity Feet stood apart, a confident posture, retuning an elegance Which you know the world can see Yet you choose not to acknowledge it You're no 'adventurer' by title But you never stagnate, or hold back Not like the rest of them You're at home with understanding Respect is your philosophy for the most part But you will never be one to admire something you detest Things which really ignite the infernos of your passionate contempt Cooled only be your focussed mind The best of your traits, most believe Yes, there are still things which knock you off course It happens to us all But you, you see them as tests, obstacles Life's little qwerks and hiccoughs Not to be dwelled upon, but transversed, transcended You are you And make sure that never changes. © 2012 Liamesq |
