PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Little while

I wanted it to be true, just for a little while
But it couldn't be, you can't sprint every mile
I took a leap of faith and hit the ground
I thought I could break every rule, hold her hand and dance round and around
I stripped my clothes, shed my skin, stood there naked and vulnerable
I looked up and everything began to crumble
I was confidence and I was pride
I was unashamed, with absolutly nothing to hide
I flew while falling, 
descended while ascending, 
cried while laughing, 
loved while hurting

I feel courage, I feel fragile
I felt brave, but only for a little while
Fragile is a broken leg
You can still stand on one 
Fragile is a body
Be naked with every fear gone

I can still smile, even if for a little while
I can still laugh, at reality that can be vile
I think I'm beautiful, because my ugliness makes it so
I think I'm perfect, because this world will always think no

I really don't know what I'm trying to say, but I feel better than before
I'm still innocent and naive, being awake is starting to be a bore
I sound very emotional, like a widow in denial
I guess we all have a weak moment, if just for a little while
