    Struggles

     Innocence masked with guilt
    Stands on a stifled slope,
    Where once hatred was built,
    And awaits an immense hope.

    Discernment in disguise
    Inside the body's rage
    Causes the opening of eyes
    To desire words of a sage.

    A dismayed soul weeps bitterly
    Without an essence...
    Emotions have no ecstasy--
    Only an aimless presence.

    The intellect pursues a way
    From the murky path behind it.
    A new light emerges to stay
    And gives hope to those who find it.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
