the apex of pain, the metanoia...
Steamroller
how have i slipped this time
how have i missed the mark
no reason nor a rhyme
i am left in the dark
how did i end up here
when all was flowing well
what have i failed to hear
why did you not foretell
you’ve pushed me didn’t you
you’ve tripped me i recall
you’ve crushed me i hate you
and by anger i fall
forgetful of the threat
now i cry like a loon
and my fault i regret
moonchild on a full moon
i may have crossed some lines
that i must have misread
oblivious to the signs
i ended up misled
too caught up in the run
too hungry for the fruits
in striving for the sun
i neglected the roots
though the lesson is hard
there’s comfort in process
and so i raise my guard
and resume my progress
i can’t go wrong for long
that you course-correct me
i am blessed by your song
musical sympathy
whenever i do need
proof of divinity
this caring i do heed
restores my clarity
Nice write,enjoyed it.
thank you ! :o)
