Step out

Step out

A Poem by Michael

Replace your noise with words
Use your voice for speaking
Confined again inside your mind
These thoughts forever bending
Inside your head you've built this lie
And you use it for excuses

There is no box
Step out for yourself
These walls scream out
They see all
Allllll
And everything
Step out

Pleasure in knowing the past
Predicts the future ahead
Sustain the knowledge learned
Or wasted was the time
One foot follows the other
You make the move
Never knowing is always wondering
Whats next?

Take a number
Get back in line
Forget all the success
A burden in disguise
Your failures will guide you
In time, its time, its time
Grow up


Faith, step out in faith
There is no box, where there is no sand
Step out for yourself
Your walls scream out
They know all
Alllll
And everything
Step out

These people drive me nuts- the ones that have to live from crisis to crisis and always follow the same patterns of mistakes and deflecting blame. They do indeed need to step outside their boxes and get some courage to amend for their own mistakes. I like the box metaphor, and that line in the sand that they draw- the useless boundaries people put up to provoke or invite argument.

This is very good...It has avery nice flow and attention is brought to certain lines for emphasis, I like it.
