Learning To Walk

Contributed by pixie on Thursday, 18th August 2005 @ 08:59:11 AM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



Learning to walk before I run,
Putting in hard work before all the fun,
Tying up all the loose ends,
Forgetting foes who I thought were friends.

Living in the now not the past,
Still smiling when a shadows been cast,
Not giving in, not bowing down,
Not letting anyone steal my crown.

My steps are small but they are steady,
I feel better, I feel more ready,
To take on my demons, to slay them all,
Now its my time to stand up tall.

For granted my happiness I will not take,
As its taken so much to mend from my break,
I feel more covered, where as once I lay bare
But still I know myself I am not quite there.

What can I say pix? This write is one of your best yet!

It flows, it tells a story, it inspires. It's like painting with words.

Well done on writing what is the best piece I have seen on this site so far.

Luv,
Pander

  • Awww pixie, I'm so glad to see you posting again!

    I love this. The rhyme, the way it flows so smoothly,
    the very positive attitude, and the wistfulness right
    at the end.. wistful, yet somehow still positive.

    *idly wonders if that made much sense*

    I'm sure, in time, your baby steps will turn to strides
    once again..

    Take care hun,
    ~KayT
