POETRY - I CONFESS

I CONFESS

I confess my wrongs

I confess my feebleness

I did nothing to save you when I could

I was nothing but a coward ~ DORCAS

A coward flirting with spineless

Always favor flight instead of fight

Not knowing its life conflicts

That brings out our whole self ~ JILAMS

Self over everything else

Selfish and self centered

Incapable of saving anyone

Useless to everyone ~ VICTORY

Everyone I like to cherish        

I confess that's just gibberish                        

My life I want to polish           

Perfection is just rubbish. ~ TOLU

Perfection is just rubbish; for everyone calls me jolly

Sadly, none sees past the smiles and wiles

Humbly I confess - I wear a mask.

Now barefaced, take me as I am. ~ TOSIN

I am who I am, no apology

For flaws are raw and stale

I confess, it's me, I deny not

Now I'm free, It's what sets me free ~  PEACE

Free of all the heart ache

Free of all the intense pain

I am more me than I ever was

I walk this earth like I own the floors beneath my feet ~AISHA

Beneath my feet, the feel lingers

Places of success all encumbered

Moments I yearn to lay my fingers

Forever are lost; never remembered. ~ SUCCESSA
