Scared To Fly

Beating myself up

These intentional steps
That I deftly feign
Destruct all my conquests
My deep seeded blame
Old feet stricken with frost
A lackadaisical clue
No motion nor movement
Deep roots overnight grew
Soft daylight that whispers
A fresh day that has come
Pale skin in the twilight
Afraid of the sun
But gold shines in the distance
Watchful, curious eyes
And as travelers wander
I stay glued to the skies

Wow, thank you!! I really appreciate that! I guess maybe I should move forward with creating a poetry compilation book...

You better do that! I'll be waiting for that.

I was thinking of using Createspace for it so that its print on demand. I have a short story I self published on Amazon and smashwords that got pretty great reviews so I was going to do the same for that as well
