Are you ready?

Contributed by dockpoet on Sunday, 20th July 2003 @ 10:25:00 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Are you ready?

Are you ready to see exactly what you are made of? What you are capable of?

How far will you push the justification of choices taken before those scales you control tip-so that even you cannot hide their weight?

You are so free with the truth to others but to yourself--you are such a liar!

Are you afraid of what you might see?

Are those eyes you are looking into the very ones you look from?

Is it possible that the faults you try to fix in others are similar to the overlooked faults in yourself?

The steps you will take now will start the path you must follow for at least today.

Tomorrow is new, unless you allow it to become yesterday or today.

Are you ready?

The faults of others stand guard as soldiers-ready to help you fight the battle within yourself.

They think you are some freak--are you starting to believe them too?

They just do not understand. Or are you really different?

To ask that question suggests that even you may not believe in what you are doing.

The rain has fallen for days now, but its dry in here.

Sheltered from the truth, fooling yourself is so easy.

Keep pushing the limits--How far can you go? Will it be worth it alone?

Are you ready to see you?

Dock
