A New Me
Enough!
I tire
'twas not my desire
to delve so deeply
into something, completely
unlike my role
and out of my control
no judgement
no passion
I cannot fashion
a destiny shining
(my undermining
of my own belief
leaves nothing but grief).
I forfeit
I've battled
long since been rattled
by dreams left forgotten
smouldered and rotten
out on fields of pleasure
marked without measure
I cannot withstand
the power of the hand
that whips me and beats me
knows how to mistreat me
I rest
I step back
viewing all that I lack
(looking to the future
for something to nurture.)
I call off this tirade
my part I have played
and I'll allow life to move on
until I can stand strong
no longer bound with uncertainty
new birth
a new me.
