A Survivor's Poetry of the Soul





the Tightrope


Foot over foot, steeping carefully through time
Dont lose your balance on that very thin line.
Lean not to the left, nor to the right
One way is to be blinded
the other, expelled from the light.
How can I walk the wires
if no one has trained me?
How can I keep my balance
if I've never known agility?
Surrounded by self servers
who controlled my ever move
forbidden to have needs
or obtain my own grove.
wishing to be accepted
I fall prey to their desires
becoming a living sacrifice
on the other side of the wires
"You are a good person."
so NOW I am told
How can I believe this
without getting too bold?
Refusing to become like them
Yet loathing to be me
I yearn for a perfect balance
It is a think seam, you see.
Apprehensively, I take heed
to every stitch I sew
working heartily to meet my goal
that My true self, I can show.
