DELIVER
Delivering a message
Creating a scene
Showing what is real
Over what is spoken
The sound of your voice
Speaks of so much power
Your heart is lost
In the speech you are throwing
Your soul is gone
And you are trying to win
To speak
With anger
What is your real reasoning
Behind this odd persona
That you can’t imagine
Or even remember
What is real
And what is not real
What is going to happen
To our future
What will others think
What will they say
What will they do
When they are around you.
How am I to accept
The new person
You are becoming
And without forgiving the old you
Respecting the new man
That is coming into my life
Showing the new person
What the old person
Has somehow forgotten
In this new message
The dream
That we live
The race that we are winning
But not forgetting.
I am not going to forget
But rather move forward
And understand
That this is okay
That I will forgive
But I will not forget
And that it is me
Who in the end
Needs to be understood
And it is okay
That I question
And it is okay
That others question me
For we are just trying to see
What is going to be.
My soul is exposed
For everyone
To abuse
To judge
And to threaten
In their own twisted way
But when someone throws their opinions
Onto my heart
And their words tear at my soul
I see the evil in their eyes
and turn
for the love and reassurance in yours.
