Message

Everyday we wait for a message,

just so we can elevate from this greater lesson?

Heated argument,

like we lost the truth of our own conviction,

so why do you take a minute just to sit down?

Wonder several times why yesterday?, and tomorrow looks so so...

clap and encore as you watch another person show.

When did we forget our own heart beat,

does this message give us something we may or may not need?

Or remind us we can overcome definition of weak.

do we over think? or did we just simply forget to breathe?

Is the message the answer to our own fate,

or a drop in a pond, passed by and never known,

did you forget to be original as you always are? Not just another clone.

Rewind back to the first lines,

is the fear of the unknown the thing keeps you blind?

When did us wanting something geater become a crime?

Your own doubts creates a ladder with fragile sticks just for you to climb?

So why do we drift like a shallow wind? Admire the outside,

neglecting who we are from within.

Why do we place boundaries on what we can and can not do?

Just to cage freedom and truth?

Circle all the way back, never truly understanding the fact,

a lot of time has passed, still in wait for the message,

with the same hallow laugh?

Makes me wonder sometimes if hope is just another trap.

Author's Note

Somedays i wonder why we just wait on a message that may never come, yet we sit and wait and watch as life our own life pass us by.

Live for now, take yourself as you are and life as it is ;)
and enjoy it

now that writing shows truth and feelings the inner you the questionable picture painted by the artist
write what you feel and say you must that's great poetry
