What You Are Seeking

What You Are Seeking

A Poem by Chris
"

From "A Yellow Sunshine Night" By Chris G. Vaillancourt Mahogany Rain Publishing ISBN:978-0981852942

"

Do not be disturbed
by the
little disturbances
pervading the atmosphere.
For, it is not the
most persuasive of effects
that often rules over
the soul.
Pursue life and reality
above all else.
Do not be troubled by
encompassing shadows
that seem to dangle around
the perimeter of vision.
Do not surrender to
dancing neon lights
that seem to flit and flick
around the jangled glare
of unknown perspective.
There are attitudes that
snap and grab around
the dying of the mind.
Slippery webs of sawdust
that grasped the remnants
of the deserted heart.
Open up the bottle that
contains the images
of peaceful existence
for they are the waves of
the mangled distractions
that define and confine
the perception of self.

You are the one
you are seeking
to love.
