Rhythm and Rhyme

Rhythm and Rhyme

A Poem by Renegade

I can write in Rhythm and Rhyme
But only when I find the time
I can write sparse thoughts of mine
If I parse them from my mind

If I could speak these thoughts of mine
A brew long syne that unbinds the twine
That holds the thoughts inside my mind

Mixed signals when I see them great
Make me want to hesitate
My mind begins to adumbrate
And slowly starts to advocate

There is no quest the truth we zest
The path is filled about to crest
With ebbing tides of shear frustration
A growing sense of aggravation

Instead of simple adaptation

A need to speak the things we think
And find the time to be in sync
A simple thing you ask of me

Intentions are my great oak tree

It seems you seek an answer true
To the question inside you
So ask it now you have the right
Ignoring fears that you’ll take flight
I‘ll answer it with truth’s fair light


My soul can clearly separate
And promptly swiftly abdicate
For it can surely acclimate
A future it can sublimate

I hope we can put this aside
To face the future with a pride
And walk together in a stride

What you decide just will not be
An end of what you mean to me
For I believe my soul can see
A part of yours meant just for me

Inside these walls that I have built
Emotions patched just like a quilt
The first time in my life anew
Not everything is all askew

I’ve broken down the walls within
In hope that something new begins
The dam has cracked no going back
It would not be the proper track

I cannot read your soul to note
Nothing left inside to quote
Conversation is the safest boat
To navigate around this moat
And lift us with security
To find a new maturity

These signs are what I really need
To show those inner sides of me

A soul caught in a pantomime
Resulting in a double prime
