Silhouette

by Joey Matthews   Nov 3, 2005


Moving gradually
Changing from
One destination
To another
This silhouette
Struggles to make way
With all the challenges
It holds within
Vulnerable and stubborn
Dependent
Only on a strong mind
Trying so hard to unearth
All the feelings
That's not so easy to hide
This silhouette
Under skies that fold
Is still trying
To
Take
Control

    Joey,
    I notice on ypur profile you don't write much anymore because you lack inspiration - but anyone who can write like this doesn't really lose inspiration, they just part ways with it for a bit!
    All the best,
    Ben

      That's true Ben.

      I have a bad tendency not to write and if I get any sort of block, I struggle to overcome it but I'm hoping that this place and of course my own can encourage me to be different. Word challenges seem to help :)

      Once again thanks for the kind comments.
