Total Resignation

Folder: 
2005-2006 Poems

My heart is crying out loud

With angst for your injustice.

Tears from my eyes-

No more.

They all dried up for pleas

That were made useless.

For they cannot be heard

By unlearned people

Who chose to remain ignorant.



I knew there would be a punchline,

A great exclamation point!

To your silence.

Your silent smirks, and giggles.

Smug looks hidden behind

That so called 'know-it-all' faces.

But you can't hide the truth-

It's all over your green face:

You know NOTHING.



So broken and used I may be,

I leave you with gratitude.

For an experience to learn

More about life, work, and myself.

That I deserve something better,

And its waiting there around the bend.

It's never worth hanging on to the past.

Bitterness will only destroy me,

Now I just need a meaningful job. =)



So this early paycheck means more

Than all the paychecks I earned.

It means, "I've had it!", "Enough!"

It means, "I am free!", "I can do more!"

"I can find where I truly belong."

"I can lay gently in the care of God's Hands."

What better place to be?

In His hands we can do the impossible.

Ahh! New life.

Sweet beginnings.

Delicious Ambiguity.
