Of You (poem)

Of You
1/18/15


It’s a slight pause
Something you don’t realize you’re doing
Watching yourself in a future time
In a new place
Grace you didn’t realize you attained
Unchained melodies driving your stride
Walking so peacefully and calmly
And then you come back to yourself
At the present time
With a new perspective to help drive your plan
You can do anything you set out towards
Forward’s the only route now
Without the tethered ropes you held before
Tore through them you did
Splendid sorrow sipping seconds slyly
Though without pain you wouldn’t be here
Realizing your full flame
Your uncontrollable flicker
Forever driving the warmth of reality
But always remember the you in the future
Will always check back in the rearview mirror
The conscience of unending reflection
And realization
Of You
