My mind has filtered countless thoughts my heart could never speak
Actions placed on display my brain could never think
The path I took is rich in loss where failure is the King
Where hope and love pursuit thereof would die within my dreams
To just survive primary trait of those apart from life
To value that which can be made is not a sacrifice
Pray to God for answers that I feel are owed to me
The blur response was “where you are is where you chose to be”
A humble heart shall ease the pain of hurt that lies within
Reflected in the glass will always show that of a friend
Although my present deeds reveal the best is yet to come
An urgent sense since slightly tense I’m not forever young
My purpose is to give to life what life has gave to me
Death, loss and misery not all it was to be
Better now than was before progress a silent oath
Yearn to live and live within the “Words I Never Spoke”
