Requiem for the Nearly Defeated

Something just passed the corner
Down the street, right down a lane
Spoken so sweet, through a spiritual plane
Although it is ignited by what is inside
It could never be touched by anyone,
and no longer could it hide
As it passes down this corner
Trouble is beating all opportunities
Now, when it does hit this area
Everything that was supposed to happen
Is starting to lose the fire once possessed
A courage of making it, and prospering
Within the realms of this courage
Never could there be a bliss of life
Contentions with anything that's so right
Making it, seeing it, to a way through
A giant pathway into the other side
Or just a large road to get into
Prospering and accepting our gifts
Excelling to the opposite of sender
Becoming the ultimate gainer, or winner
Passing on phases of death as we know it
Choosing love inside, opened and shown
Owning skills that nobody can teach

I want so much to be raw truthful with you. If your interested in my constructive criticism email me on this site. This poem is like a maze and I'm still finding my way. I gave it a 7 but I believe it could be a 10, if you helped me find my way.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
