Confessions

Contributed by hauntedscorp on Sunday, 26th October 2014 @ 02:20:16 PM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



I confess to being afraid.

Afraid of wasting my time
Afraid to get it wrong-
Afraid to get it right.

Afraid of never being known.

Afraid of you-
Afraid of me.
Afraid of everything I can and cannot see.

I admit to my mistakes.

Mistakes greater than a few
Mistakes that were corrected-
Mistakes that were untrue.

Mistake of loving him, or loving you.

Mistakes to be forgiven-
Mistakes you made too.
Mistakes are merely wisdom yet unborn.

I confess to losing faith.

Faith in your assurances
Faith in your ability to grow-
Faith in my ability to change.

Faith in our rapport.

Faith will be restored-
Faith can't be ignored.
Faith; I shall seek.

Now that's a lot of confession! I like this poem. I'm right there with you, brother. Good line here, "Mistakes are merely wisdom yet unborn"

Cool.

I think these words transcend what your intention for them were. They make an impact. The key ingredient to a meaningful expression.

Enjoy all your writings for so many years . Don't ever stop.

And talk about a line...I agree this line is filled with wisdom :

Mistakes are merely wisdom yet unborn.

God dangit, you did it again! I felt good about what I posted here earlier this fine morning and then I read this and am totally ashamed for putting out such poor pieces. you are a master wordsmith, there is no other description for your weaving of thought and words. Masterfully done. I am so happy i started reading you

I too confess to being afraid...

Fear is what keeps us paralyzed or proves our metal. Lets do it Scorp!

I really like this, it is deep and magnetic, The best writing is that in which we can touch the core of the author; we can here. I think the true faith we all seek, is faith in ourselves; with such faith we don't have to guess or doubt. If we are honest, and it is the only way, we will find it.( Confessions are an example of such honesty.) We can't alter the past, but we can, as you so eloquently put it, gain wisdom from our mistakes. We cannot determine the future, but we can influence it by acknowledging that maybe the past could have been different.
Sorry if I went off on a tangent, but we are allowed to do that when we are appreciative of something, aren't we?

This is like an anthem. It reminds me of some of the posters I see at different places.

I've read a number of your poems, and my comments don't seem to register. In case this one does; they are all great. I wrote a few, and now I don't seem to have the will to write any more.
