Acceptance By aldo kraas, www.PoetryPoem.com/poet11586 Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime
I have never accepted who I am
always wearing a mask to try and hide
You came into my life to show me the mirror
My own soul giving me instruction on the matters of
Sexual gratification
To grow my seeds of lust
And god they grew
To the point I thought I fell in love with my mirror
Thereby falling when the mirror broke itself and shattered
Into a million broken pieces like my heart
The storm blew for miles and for months
was swimming inside my mind
And I was blind
Only now at the eleventh hour
I can see my mistakes
Are about to visit me
I can no longer plead innocence
As my loved ones may grieve
My town will be pleased
To see me fall
From my own appointed pedestal
A humbling point
Gods gift
To take me down
With only a frown
I was told of this moment
Of an old lady who will lose her looks
Topay back the harm done
over the course of years
to her loved ones
So now I have all the time to accept who I am
And wear a new mask
That paints how ugly my soul is
Punishment for my sins
As the devil wears his grin
