PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I still live with

the damp overcast

shadow of rejection

Its stench still

resides unwelcome

An unwilling participant

in this transition

Metamorphosis in slow motion

a test of patient endurance

I have no choice

There is no way

to avoid this sway

anxiously I wait

for a relieving break

from this regretful stake



I look for the sunshine to

Impose this gloom

Illuminate this room

Of remorse and grief

May its ray’s blaze relief

From this stagnant

Melancholy croon

The rides

The sides

The highs

The sighs

Make me dizzy

I yearn to be steady

Still, swim in

peaceful pool

I will no longer

wade as a fool

linch off my neck

No longer looking back

Riding on the winds cool

Soaring with the eagles

Newly equipped

with sturdy tools

May I roar,

may I tour Life

with new eyes

New mind
