PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You captured the mood completely

As you stared down at the table top

The moment passed so slowly

That even your whispering took on a deepened tone

And, my anxiety left me inevitably silent

In such an uncomfortable moment



That regret was bound to thrive within

The hesitation we’re now feeling

Well, Honey, you warned me it would come



I chain my heart in desperation

And, question why my confidence failed

Even in the face of all my wisdom

Somehow, I lost the importance faith once held

And, lost the influence it had upon my decisions

And, now like an orphan I fight just to survive



That regret was bound to thrive within

The hesitation I’m now feeling

Well, Honey, this is it blooming before my eyes



Now, every day in early evening

As the summer air cools

I ask God to turn me into a wise man

Amongst the worlds wisest fools

And, then I come to realize how little this life really means

And, how much sweeter these sufferings will make the next world be



I cut the chains to my desperation

And, realize that may be all wisdom means
