Free flow

just writing off the top of my dome...

Today

was a day

yesterday was one too

but not like the sun that just set

finding myself in limbo

in between the potential and the realization

on the cusp of the now and the future

really

really 

really needing something to happen

before i burst with impatience

or prolong with hesitation

i'm so tired of sitting

complacent and fearing

i'm going to miss my next step

or misstep

or not step at all

and i know there are those in my corner

but today felt lonely

today felt solo

flying and falling

tired 

weighed down

and losing my grip on things

needing to focus

distractions invade my privacy

watching my naked moments

taking over my vulnerable eyes

i fall prey every time

i slip and slide

a slippery slope

to my mediocrity

i just know i'm meant to be more than the me is right now

sitting in limbo

on the cusp of who i was

and who my Father sees

I've got to find out about my missing piece

or where the pieces fell

time to build

time to swell up with something besides pride

maybe purpose will suffice?

i just know i need a new fresh journey

in this new fresh year

before i lose it inside of here

the atmosphere is pinching me

and it's time to lose some weight

away with the excess

downsize the nest

and pick up only the necessary for my quest

i'm on a journey...to find me

any clues?

any treasure map?

gps or anything like that?

i need all the help i can get

At least I'm up and moving

I'm already one step further than yesterday....

on the cusp of change

in limbo

hanging out

waiting

for a knock on the door

and clarity to come home

for the next door to be known...

patiently

and sometimes impatiently

waiting...

Beautiful!

Respect! People or poets don't understand how to do this, from the dome! Or understand this concept...you just flowed it do well. To say the next sentence to the last from top...and I put that on top...is important for spoken words.

This poem has a nice intimate feel to it. It played out in my mind with ease. I actually think it would make a cool short film of a persons thoughts ringing out aloud. The candid nature and honesty make it special.
