Calling us
By Kiah
Calling us, drawing us, following us, swallowing us. It’s calling us from just beyond the watermark. The raving mad truth, so bright, so stark. I tried long enough to ignore what I am. It’s not really my fault I’m human. Twisted up inside of all our own misconceptions. “Don’t be afraid to be who you are.” “Believe in yourself & you will go far.” These words once said to me insincerely. Close to my heart I’ve always carried them nearly. Turn it around, burn it down, spin the clouds. Let go of what to which you are bound. You only hold yourself down here. The future is certainly unclear. Change your thoughts and free yourself. Really there is no need for any other’s help, to Evolve, to Dissolve, to Resolve, for Absolve. Forgiveness is something that cannot be extracted. Hate is only what you were taught when you reacted. Days & night pass where will they take you? Breathe deep as life passes or it will break you. The deafening call of bleeding hearts dying. A tear is worth shedding or its worth trying. Calling from a space in our blank eyes. Is the answer to our dark lies.
