DisappointmentA Poem by Maryam MottahedehDisappointment Disappointment will bring you right down Down to earth Back to the thick of things To the way things are
A step closer with this new vision To acceptance Just a tad bit closer To what it is you want Don’t fight it Move, move closer With acknowledgement of your desire
Without the pain of disappointment There is less clarity More actual confusion More disregard of that which is in the playground of life Disappointment gets such a bad rap Like this ugly messenger The unwanted visitor with too bright of lights
We like it dim sometimes The collective of I The collective of dreams and desire Disappointment leads such a narrow path You cannot stray as far It brings you right back It’s a friend you know Bold and simply true
Let me air out my feelings I have an old friend A visitor © 2014 Maryam Mottahedeh |
