Poetry

Confidence is shaky.

Sometimes firm.

Other times flown.

Timid people suffer

Because they can’t ask the questions.

So,

Let me remind you…

You’ve got this!

Now I am the one who has the power.

I say yes or no.

No longer am I dancing to his strings.

If only I could get out from society’s yoke.

Repentance is not easy.

Blame and shame are harder to forget.

Some would rather deny they wronged

and claim they were always right.

Others look upon those individuals

with pity.

And fear.

Go forward.

Don’t look back.

The past can no longer help you.

Move confidently

Even if you are not.

Sometimes the future can be changed

When you change your Now!

Bring about the gale.

Announce the storm.

Fever breaks

While trees dance the morn.

Thrice the dam breaks

Go find the worm.

Not just because

He sometimes has

A stinky butt,

But sometimes

Unintentionally

He causes chaos.

Seek to out run.

Find the meaning.

Never can we die.

Nothing lasts forever.

Wishes don’t come true.

Sunshine Rose.

Balding Eagle.

Horse Hockey.

Grief Urges.

Joy in the City.

Keep going forward.

Move.

Work to get ahead.

Time to forge a new path.

Blaze that trail.

Conform to expectations and survive.

I have reacted this way

since childhood.

I was taught to do things specifically.

Now I know these actions are detrimental.

I must seek ways to change these behaviours.

How is the question?

You see, one of the big things I have learned

is that it was not just my behaviours

but my brain that was wired differently.

How can I rewire my brain?

Or should I simply accept it?
