BEWARE…
The Lonely Person
Who intrudes into
your life
And taints every
moment of happiness
With an undercurrent
of guilt…
Whose words paint a
picture
That smudges your
canvas
Of colour
With dark edges of
black
And shadows that cast
a pall….
Those words that have
an undercurrent
Whose tow drags you
deeper
Into the ocean of
despair
And your spirit loses
sight of the shore
And you are cast
adrift…
Beware…
Of being held hostage
Of words that bind
you deeper
The snare that
imprisons the bird
Whose wings once are
clipped
Can never fly again….
Beware…
Of sharing dreams and
hope
With a life that is
set in stone
Unchanging, unmoving,
unbroken
But sits heavy on
your heart
Which beats trapped
in another realm
Not in your
consciousness…
Fly free, untethered
Your soul cannot be
captured
The mirror can hold
only one reflection
Of the truth which
governs your life
And yours alone….
