And it's spoken...

I use words to express all the pain that I feel
Use verbs to inject all emotions concealed
Use the mind to tread the earth, while exploring the fields
I never lived for the fortune, still spinning the wheel
So I can tap dance my soul to places I’ve never been
Take flight, enhance the flow with graces of relevance
In a sense, I pranced to preach deliverance but
Conquered my innocence with the power of indigence
Put my life between the lines, centerpiece of the mind
Particular healing powers evidently divine
Callused my palms just to get a grip on the time
Hanging tight with both hands as I slipped on the vine
Now, I say I’m fine when the truth is that I’m not
Consistently confined with thoughts tied in a knot
So I try to live life for the fact that I’m not,
The person I used to be, vicarious when I’m not
I, live for every moment, not to rise to the top
Cause the path that I have chosen is one I could never stop
Once broken, wingless, cells blocked in a box
Until I recognized, wins were not a reason to rock
Instead I chopped the pessimism in meto two halves
Gave one to the past, the other into the trash
Bred, humility some couldn’t see through the glass
By acknowledging that life in itself is a blessed class.
