Poem #48: Inside
#49 of Poetry
A poem about what is ... inside. Pretty self-explanatory. Enjoy.
Inside
The soul that's inside
It floats and flies
I feel it trapped
Beneath the surface
The mind that's inside
Rants and raves
Yearning to learn
Wishing the torrent to end
The heart that's inside
Yearns for its love
Holes pierce its shell
Bleeding in rivers
The emotions inside
Swirl around in mystery
They ponder and question
Validity of reality
The memories within
Stir and strengthen
Move and weaken
Defining our cover
The desires within
We want what we do
Needing and craving
Supply for our demands
The qualities within
Our faults and flaws
Shown through our actions
Enlightened by our deeds
The beauty within
That tenuous grin
Laughter and joy
Masking the face
The faith within
Looks up to hope
Gives us our courage
And sometimes, blinds us
The intent within
Good or maybe bad
Is our own
Influenced by all
The blood that's inside
Keeps us alive
Flows and runs
Around and around
What is inside us
Is what defines us
Remember yourself
Pride of what's Inside.
