Clarity

As an offering of clarity I give to you

A peek into my thoughts

They shift and shift and change up often

For battles internally fought

Against the biggest traitor of all

Tussling with temptations grand and tall

Stubborn so they push each other

Often ending up in a brawl

It seems that poetry offers calm

To my calamity after all

Loving the highs I reach through writing

While hating the sudden falls

Without it in my process daily

Things get missed and trees don't shade me

As the sun beams down on my behavior

Reflecting a taste that's hard to savor

I pause while not expecting Santa Claus

It seems realities been

Exposed through summers sudden falls

While hoping calamity ends

A cold July day is my birthday

Feeling like nothings worth it

Imagine my mind in spinning mode

While trying to write this perfect
