The Journey
By Tigger
Swimming in a sea of personality
Who are you and who are we
Words come out of my mouth
time flies by
I'm so scared to discover
the worlds I need to uncover
Secrets are many and time is limited
nothing can be recalled
and yet, it is all there
lurking,coniving, controlling
One step forward and three steps back
I will not get there, I'm under attack
Duck, dodge,pray
I'm scared,what can I say?
What is the control
Who really has it
Are they bad, are they sad. are they mad
are they glad... Yes,they are
Celebrate the diversity
Challenge the adversity
Who is your friend
upon which you can depend
what is the need
I don't understand, they plead
Nothing was that bad
it is all a joke
Someday, I will wake up
it will all have been a dream
All of us to become one
who will die
They will cry
alone in isolation
thoughts of delegation
if you go, we will survive
and yet,I can't kill what is alive
turmoil, torture
wanting to be normal
jealousy,anger
normal is not for you
because there are too many of you
no one belongs
except in my world
and even then...
We have been discovered
protection uncovered
where to run
where to hide
ashamed, embarrassed, mortified
I want to die
I am striped for all to see
Once again,naked
in vastness of humility
Where can I hide
Where is my pride
not allowed to die
so we swallow up inside
I, we can't function
we just cry
chaos
darkness
turmoil
two steps forward, one step back
took a header
stand firm, grit your teeth
someday, this ride will end
until then, you and I are
our own best friend
