Everyday Drama..
Walking along a tightrope
Balancing between calm and tranquillity
And the way things used to be..
Caution leads the way
Knowing one slip
One mistake
Will leave me being the one to pay
And pay i will..
Tip toeing on egg shells
Wondering what Will break first
I've Been here time and time again
But the scenes no way rehearsed..
Softly speaking..
Knowing If you wake the voice that hides within..
1000 Apologies
Then notify your next of kin..
Nothing will stop what follows
The downward spiral
Of pain
Despair
And sorrow..
All you can do..
Is wait
And prey..
Prey for normality
Prey for how things used to be..
Prey for happiness
Smiling
and
laughter..
Then prey the continuous
Wheel of life doesn't continue straight after.

You say you are NO poet? You ARE a poet. You write so beautifully and you have a wonderful speaking voice that goes with is. A Poet is one who is an emotional, vocal, and expressive being , conveying their thoughts through their words. You have much to say in lots of issues you may have and therapeutic it may be my friend, but you, at the same time, ARE a Poet. Yea, looking at you you seem like the manly man type and don't strike the appearance of one looks like, but no matter our looks, the Poet is one who starts in the heart, and you have a HEART. You have passion. Keep it up!! I loved this and thank you for sharing:)
P.S. Did you mean to say Pray, instead of Prey?

Oh wow thank you so much.
This was about being with an alcoholic and knowing one trigger could set off a whole chain of events usually resulting in disaster.
Its comments like yours that give me a real lift.
I try and read other pieces and the words and the way they express themselves amazes me. I wish I could write like that. But I guess we're all different and all express ourselves in different ways.
Thank you so much again for your inspiring comment 🙂

Exactly! We are all individuals and all are different and you will have it on the nose that we all express ourselves differently in our perspective are all different from one another..... but that's what makes all these poems so special from person to person because one poems going to be different than the other and I actually like that. I am so glad that I helped to inspire you in some way shape or form:)
