This Time
I’ve been working on this poem for about a month. I would describe this poem as looking at the past as a reflection for the present….I don’t know… for your enjoyment!
This time is different than the last
You see last time I had no faith or very little
Last time it was all about me; what I wanted and doing whatever it took to get want I wanted
Last time I didn’t trust and I was scared
Last time I was arrogant and proud, too proud perhaps
Last time it was all about feelings and not thinking; not using my head
Last time I was ambivalent and insecure
Last time I was juvenile possibly immature
Last time…….
And then I took a step back…….and the pendulum swings….
This time I’m fulfilled with understanding and contentment
This time I have complete faith….yes it’s possible….complete faith
This time I’m joyous with love and blissful with anticipation
This time I admire…inward out.
This time I’m optimistic and overflowing with humbleness and consideration
This time it’s about knowing and being benevolent
This time it’s about doing all the selfless acts of services…on behalf of others
This time…..is different than the last…..
