metaphor

 
inside me I fade
introspective distraction
calculating my next move

emotions well and I'm distracted
pain flavoring my soul
melancholy singing to me
little notes of blue

there are so many things in this world
I wish i'd never seen
still, I'm learning who I am

my light seemed to dim
but it was only shining its light
at the woman within

immortal lady with heart
sighs tell me a secret
whispers hint at the eternal
I will carry my wisdom into the next life
as a lady fully evolved

eyes blinking open witnessing mysteries
I turn on the eternal wheel
bringing my truth to the surface

I enter the solemn corridor
walking into the light
and just like that, I'm back

ready for a world trying to defeat me
ferocity comes forth, I'm ready motherfucker
