Umbilical Residue
Jan. 3rd, 2020 10:04 pmCutting this umbilical residue poisoning my soul,
Harder than imagined with it's chains and warm control,
Love within as always more appreciated still,
Though your grasp and hold will surely end in less than thrill,
As you may not see reason and believe your best is right,
It never will be, while I wait upon my feet for night,
When taking time to be somewhere does not mean lost in thought,
The final resting choices end with your decisions bought,
I'd not be one to tell you that your hold on me is wrong,
You'll find out for yourselves if never heeded, not so long,
My life as seen by all is what belief you have of me,
Excited at the prospect always, everything I see,
Could you not understand I love the world in all it's ways,
So why not show such joy whenever smiles come my way,
I'd not miss things that you may think, as never do I truly,
I think of things so often, yet it's never that unruly,
I lost my mother, loved so dear but hold the knowledge tight,
That all she'd wish for in me now is knowing what is right,
That's loss of life, while filled with strife, if I just move away,
You'd surely understand to know I'd always be okay,
Please, I ask with open heart, allow me this one chance,
For I know now what rain may fall and where I wish to dance
