For I’m sorry
that I cannot be
those little things
You expect of me
So watch to see
what it is I embark
will it then engulf
pull me into the dark
Then step away
further from fear
be willing to let go
in order to draw near
Look beyond it all
to trust that I know
believe what is true
my spirit will flow
How strange a life
you seem to be
far from the shadows
engulfed by this tree
The pretence of sorrow
swallowed by pride
free from this existence
taking it all in stride
Promise to always hope
past the blindness
and then see through
to all the greatness
No matter the boulder
remember to believe
my spirit will soar
without reprieve
View life as a dance
a mere thoughtless sway
so hum to that beat
mindlessly press play
Read between the lines
to find that key note
hold on to it tight
then discard the quote
Conform to chorus
and stifle that voice
a melody void
for there is no choice
Tap to the music
the song in your head
let your heart rejoice
compliance now fled
