My shadows deep and whispers low, I tread a path so lone
Where echoes of my footsteps keep a rhythm, soft, monotone
Around me, souls reach out in hope, their warmth a fleeting day
Yet, in this dance, I falter and choose instead to push away
The world is a tapestry of bonds, threads intertwining tight
Each stitch a promise, colored bright, against the fall of night
But fear, like frost, creeps in my heart, turning warmest gold to gray
And in my chill, I draw the veil and gently push away
Why do I guard this fortress, keep its gates so closely drawn?
Why do I fear the touch of dawn, the light before the morning?
Perhaps in solitude, I find bittersweet dismay
For, in the end, it’s me I’ve lost each time I push away
Yet, in the quiet hope whispers, a tender, fragile strain
Maybe bridges can be built where only walls remain
With cautious steps, could I reach out, let in the light of day?
Or will I wander, evermore, a soul that pushes away?
-Push Away-
Blessings and Love!
