HighA Poem by Connor Jarvis
When I became discontent I escaped
I looked at her plastered smile and accepted the empty solution that offered a moment's bliss. We were always in the sky You rarely caught us on the ground We were accepted and loved in sky while we basked in the embrace of temporary false hope Though the fall was tragic and horrifying every time It was inevitable just like death It was on the ground, we felt empty If we focused and tinkered on the ground we wouldn't need to go up into the sky Pessimism and the cynical mind state overwhelmed us while grounded So we were never all there while on the ground We had no chance Same goes while in the sky I took what the plastered smile offered me Id escape from the ground into the sky But was what was up there really an answer I cried a bit I smiled Id soon be in the sky on my way to forgetting this horrid conclusion © 2014 Connor Jarvis |
