I MUST LEAVE YOU IN DESPAIR-and ENJOY it!

49

By Serendipity88

You were a waste of time

Not even deserving of a good rhyme

Fist clenched, sweat damping my face

Anxious to find my place

I take the first step

It takes a hold

Just as if I were driving wearing a blindfold

Grabs me tight

I try so hard to fight


I feel my heart race, I begin to pace

At least it reminds me that I’m part of the human race

I take the first step

First we meet to say our goodbyes

I say must walk alone

I say must fall alone

For I am capable of picking myself up

Embracing the world like a new born pup

I am sorry to say…I can no longer stay


So afraid of failing

That was why I kept on bailing

I am now ready to take the next step

I can no longer hide

I need to realize my own ability buried deep inside

I set myself free

And finally discover the real me

You see my dear…

It is this little thing in life that hinders us

This little thing we call FEAR

You're changing. Things are changing. We hold on to what we can but we can't be resistant to change and that voice in our heads that cries "chocolate!" -among other things. You have a way with Rhyme! Be kind! rewind! God bless Serendipity!
