Attrition

Unsteady notions caused by cliches 

Divergence is inevitable 

 

Re-embrace authenticity

Denounce the voice of confusion

Intuitive minds remain unaltered 

Channel resilience of our youthful past adjusting 

Still settling for less

 

Doubt sowed from within our enigmatic selections 

 

Only breeds more exasperation

(Maladjusted and distrustful of my)

Circumstances 

Altered their supposition open

 

Disengaged and engrossed in my self indulgent endeavors

New found alterations

 

Ambivalent at first

Willing to see beyond limitations

Bittersweet connection

Inspiration’s detrimental amnesty

 

Reformed my perception

Expectations overflowed verity

 

Evading opportunities to be heard by untold accounts of legacy 

Substance aggrieved by evaluations 

Faced with instability 

 

Delusions that affirmed my worth enabled design

Now desperate for resurgence

Validation used to ease anxiety 

Self-realization comes with persistence

Bear the fruit of indecision 

 

Constant severing ties yet afraid of abandonment 

Repression’s interfering appeal

Remain self reliant when faced with discontentment

Striving to be master of none

Unashamed of my rightful place

(Thoughts racing in this seemingly empty vessel

While I struggle to secure fleeting moments of contentment 

Anecdotes garnered over time are the root of our fruition

Faced with instability prescribed 

Erosion)
