Let Me Take You

by Kaitlin Kristina   Apr 5, 2005


I yearn to write for purpose.
To prove point, left previously unproven.
My goal is to enlighten, instruct, and teach.
Not preach.
But lead by example, this glorious beast,
That is trapped inside your mind.

Blank is the slate, upon which I draw the map,
To Never land, Oz, Kansas, and back,
Let your thoughts go, follow my lead,
I’ll leave the trail, if my orders you heed-
Stop. Become comfortably numb,
Drift with the current of my words yet to come…

Come with me, to this far away place,
The heavens, the waters, outer space,
Listen to me tell you, of epic lost love,
Watch me draw on my arm,
With razor and blood. Let me guide you,

Through sands of time, trapped in no box,
Just like the mime. Let me drown you,
In my fallen tears, with simple words.
Bring on your fears. Let me introduce you,
To the darkest of them all. Let me bring you up-

Then let you fall.

Thank you.

    Powerful, Kaitlin. Powerful, romantic, and more than a little metaphysical. Great poem with a wonderful ending.

    Wow!!! Enticing words for one to write their life,
    and then “Let me introduce you,
    To the darkest of them all. Let me bring you up-
    Then let you fall”
    The message I got is like the war for good and evil,
    and if not or is, it is an excellent write well done.
