Less than perfect

selfstruggles
|
she wakes, wakes to nightmares tending
fears and dark thoughts never-ending
always there in slumber’s keeping,
to draw her from her rest
she tries, tries so hard to be good
like her mama said she could-should,
but the worms in the rosewood
Seem to spoil all her dreams
she sees, sees in colours splendid,
her mind focussed and transcended
but many times the world is rendered
in sombre shades of grey
now she hopes, hopes the good times
will wash away all of her crimes
and let her bask in warmer climes,
before the cold returns.

My dearest poet~
I am tempted to make reference here to the battles within ourselves
to always strive for the greater good. The emotion and provocation
of thought this promotes is overwhelming .. and has left
me pondering my very own choices in life ..
Do we ever know ? Does fate truly have all the cards ? Are we just
victims of her deal ? Or do we possess freedoms we just sometimes
choose to ignore. And then make excuses for our crimes ... like
we had no choices at all ..
good grief, dear poet. You have accomplished the amazing
with this write . I am in a myriad of thoughts and ponderings ... a feat that
is achieved by very few ..
Exceptional write, S. Truly ~
