"Follow Your Bliss"
Lured by the man’s mysterious forest, she embarked on a perilous trek
Garbed in simple cloaks of sincerity, a pendent for luck hugging her neckShe had no means to achieve her goal, no specific or orderly plan
But she was determined and devout to reach the heart of this admirable manArmed with the knowledge of the time it’d take, she patiently but relentlessly strived
Throughout the darkness and the light, never resting, even whilst the moon inhabited the sky
And the man, he wanted her just as fiercely, but hindered her frenzied search among the trees
As his demons emerged one by one to bring the girl defiantly to her knees
He with all his vices, was consumed by this dim world and left stranded in despair
Because the monsters that he’d let free had been released unwillingly, proving life unfair
Unknown to him and his agony, the woman’s will would not be so easily defeated
Not so long as she carried her last most powerful tool; a single rose so sweet and red
It was passion. It was love. The only luminous token to conquer the shadows that loomed over the pair
Calling forth fate with the wings to follow, and watch over their struggle with the wisdom to share
She feared the loss of what she so desperately desired, knowing that the quickest route was to expect him to stay
He feared the loss of what he so desperately required, and his own negative traits that could chase her away
This is a great blog in my opinion. You use very strong description words about the tattoo. I was able to picture it in my head right away with no problems. I also think your poem is great. Keep up the good writing :)
ReplyDeleteI am personally a fan of poetry. I've been writing poetry since I was 14, and I plan to publish a book one day. I thought your poem was very insightful. Especially about the part of her not knowing where she may be going, but let something divine and blissful lead her on her journey. Surely please continue with your poetic writing. Poets have a story to tell!
ReplyDeleteI am really impressed by your poem, you sound like a professional poet and I also started practicing Martial arts but it was long time ago I really miss those days. And your blog is really good too including your wallpaper :)
