the ladder to climb

Contributed by boredoms_burden on Saturday, 16th December 2006 @ 03:25:23 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



we hold our ground upon our stage until our hearts are full of rage
we hold it in until we break and then the ground begins to shake
we feel it deeper coming out its almost there just let it out
we feel this pain until we fight we fight this pain all day and night
to hold it in and forget the past im breaking down i just wont last

over thinking and over judging seperates the body from the mind
taking control of my insecurities when i need to the most
throwing away reality and stepping far beyond the lines

we hold it in just to let it drown surrounded by these dreadful sounds
our teeth grit as we clinch our fist just another fit to add to the list
i can feel it coming down and i know you feel it too
but this time im going to do what it takes to step through
to make art out of what used to be ruin to overcome reality to overcome your being as a human

over thinking and over judging seperates the body from the mind
taking control of my pride when i need to the most
throwing away reality and playing far outside the lines

swallow your pride and drown your sorrow whatever it takes to see tomorrow
with my bare hands on the surface i move right between sound
i move to the unkown with my bare feet on the ground
take my will, my desire to live break it out and bury my sin
climb this ladder up till the end, it might just take you where no ones been

I agree. I feel this poem is about using art as a release for built up imagination rather than simply keeping it in. Very nice poem and i too would like to know the authors true meaning.
