SHADES OF GREY

INNER FLAME.

You are someone who exudes, the vivaciousness of life, Do not let another’s ac ons; allow this to be sacrificed, Love is such a complex gi , that cannot be defined, How did something so wonderful, become so undermined.

The melody of sadness echoes, haun ng to the extreme, Happiness seems so far away, becoming as if a dream, The illusions some portray, themselves they try to hide, But the true self does reveal, for it cannot be denied, The power that is unleashed, within the controlling word, Truths revealed you never knew, your heart just never heard,

Subjugated within confusion, drained unto your soul, The walls of darkness suffocate, entangling with their hold, When you ques on who you are, is there a purpose anymore, But the fire within is simmering, becoming impossible to ignore, As the resilience of the survivor you, during situa ons faced, Becomes the light within the darkness, to be the saving grace,

A me for solitude, a me to heal, to find the inner peace, Forgiveness for the pain inflicted, finally being released, Igni ng the progression, accep ng that throughout change, That although being a difficult process, is a chance to re-arrange,

To focus on each day, one step at a me, Regaining the strength of living, finding peace of mind, The sense of magic s ll exists, throughout the kaleidoscope of doubt, Flickering beneath the surface, striving to be brought out, Therein lays the inner you, with the zest and determina on to succeed, Having found the self assurance, for in yourself you do believe.
