Coming In From the Garage

(pondering on thoughts about life)

 

This life has been a peculiar journey

Never knowing what the next minute

Will bring or the people who are in it

In all I have met, heroes I'd like to be

I have found out I could only stay me

Forlorn with the reflection, eyes not lit

Creation of my design, I'm not all legit

I have fooled others and lost my light

Pretending I'm pleased was my choice

 

I now choose to close this repulsive rut

A moment to rupture open and rejoice

I am breaking through the manacles of night

Time to love myself time, a door is shut

Author's Note

Tell me what you think.

I LIKE THIS. Self-realization is always a beautiful thing to read about. I celebrate your re-birth into the journey of the new you, on a different path. This is really cool. (I especially like the title...brilliant!)

I think you meant "breaking" and not "braking" in the second last line.

I agree with you entirely. We have all hurt people, wanted to be heroes but we are so imperfect. We pretend to be happy (for wahtever reason) when we really aren't. I think its great that you are "rupturing" and rejoicing, it is something alot of us can't do because we are so caught up. Lovely thoughts.
