Reconsidered I - Half-Memory An unknown feeling Laced with fear and misunderstanding Once distant mistakes of past The lost and close-by no less demanding A brief instant of mind Not known to be quite as true Recollected and recalled As a nightmare that only grew Sit in quaint denial Don't admit to far off fear Ask for whatever forms as thought Keep away from hands that near Embrace it as a namesake Submit all the more to hate Cope alone to cause the pain Of a memory of past fate II - Personal Rehab Trust is just an issue Truth a lying notion Tears don't get us anyplace So try not to waste emotion Conservation is an option Not many bother to take It seems easier to shell all out And beg for pity's sake Draw nearer to the edge Await what's known as last Don't be afraid of instances Or subtleties from past Hate the way the world works Yet do nothing to cause change Despite all of my inner wants Fears make me stay the same III - Now That It's All Over Seconds can seem like hours To those who know such states Time can hold you captive And all you can do is wait The process may be painful But life is lived with reason A closure from experience Won't prevent the coming season My strength is not a visage Though I hide behind a cape Shield away all of my fears Down with a secret that is rape |

Katherine, you know I love this poem, that's why I asked you to post it here. I'm glad you joined piptalk. quote: That's my favourite stanza. I like your shift from a pessimistic world view into a more optimistic self-correction on the meaning of life. Nicely written, and I vote this to be in the book. Parasite "Faith" means the will to avoid knowing what is true. |
