Almost There

[/media-credit]Desires and wants stay submerged
Needs are too much to ask for
Perplexing grins shut down the reveal
Standing on the line…
Insane rants get stuck in my throat
Thoughts of freedom start to fade away
Tiring muscles slow to a complete halt
Wavering on the line…
Silence doesn’t provide any solace
Rhythmic jokes pierce my soft spot
Waning love offers no resolution
Slipping off the line…
Straight stance, volume turned up
My inner voice stutters no more
Blocking the perpetual advice of all
Letting go of the line…
I am almost there…

Very nice Katy. Very uplifting and relatable. I know relatable isn’t a word, but it certainly should be.
Thank you, Dani. Life is such a balancing act that I do realize everyone can relate to what I was trying to say here. Also, glad you found it so uplifting -- that makes me very happy.
