Slow Climb
Detract, deny, deflect So that I won't have any regrets Said to be heaven sent Into the forest my mind has went
The dichotomy of the situation Reflections while on vacation Removing this crippling stagnation Signs sending up pure elations
One stop and put a hold on me Mind plays tricks Makes it harder to see Said, this was sent to make me feel free Can't help but think it's a gift from the enemy
Push it away and out of my mind Yet that voice plays on like a sign of the times Memories of the past have haunted my rhymes Narrowly walking on this fine line
Going deep I found a lotus Molding me into what beholds us Clear my thoughts - regain some focus Silence now to find the token
Take me away upon the breeze Branch by branch growing these leaves Why hold my breath when I could breathe Golden hour shown through the trees
Raised the stakes needing a pause Ridding myself of these false laws Of who I've been and what I was Up the ladder prong by prong
~I.S.~
