POEM (059) Pathless

Pathless

I never wanted to be secure, tripped, written, in lure,
I never needed serenity, sunshine in the vicinity,
I never thought I’d be tied, taught upon and lied,
I never entrusted my life to be a voyage, in which I never tried.

I considered an act of change, forcing the middle range,
I considered the rainbow sky, to an unborn babies cry,
I considered the cliff, the depth and the rift,
I considered bursting sunshine, bells ringing as I climb.

I fought through the pain, the pounding, thumping vein,
I fought wrong from right, hidden from the eye’s sight,
I fought open armed, ruptured yet unharmed,
I fought through fear, and the cross road I had to veer.

I don’t claim to know it all, love, life, the birds and bees,
I don’t claim to be perfect, from my heart to my knees,
I don’t claim to be it all, just a picture on your wall,
I don’t claim to be your world, I just want to be it all.

I know I haven’t read all your poems…just don’t see how it will get better than this…. I’ll let you know if it does. When I get a chance Ill sit down and read more of your poems. To be honest, I never read other peoples poetry unless they catch my eye from the very first poem. I normally find myself reading my own and thinking of the memories! This poem makes me want to read more!
