POEMS COURTESY OF BLOSSOM

Something New

It’s hard to describe how I feel presently but I know I want more.

Seconds turns to minutes, weeks to months and I wonder if this is what I want.

Piece by piece, I’m endued afresh, birthed a new.

My heart and mind unable to carry this new capacity.

Renewed strength and zeal encompasses me this time like never before.

My mind catches a glimpse of my foretold glory,

And I in eagerness walk towards it.

Unchangingly, I’m wakened anew filled with untold strength.

My mind refusing any other energy but the one that drives me to light.

My whole body shakes with voltages of positivity waiting to burst.

I can’t really describe it but it’s close to perfection,

Putting fire in every part that joins each bone,

At least I’m certain of one thing, my flight is sure.
