Consequence

N.B. Read in reverse first (bottom up) then read it forward.

Absence of light,

This constant urge to fight,

Always ready to take flight,

Seldom the experience of delight,

Suffering always from this or that plight,

Always hearing to do what is right.

What exactly does that mean?

I hate being in the middle of a scene,

Hearing the hurt from a beautiful queen,

Inflicted unaware because I wasn't so keen,

On the damage caused from the events that have been.

Has it ever occurred that I didn't know,

The pain and hurt that I have allowed to flow,

Through your heart and mind, I will never know,

Justify it never, but to you, it sounds like excuses though.

Unfortunately, through your pain, I must learn and grow.

Conflicted inside I will be,

Knowing not that I caused this tragedy,

Distant from my feelings, I am an anomaly,

If you search for my heart, you will only find a cavity,

Becoming aware of this I approach insanity.

Destructive to you this must be,

Shocking to me, definitely,

My intentions always filled with positivity,

Execution, unfortunately, resultant, a malady.

My emotional intelligence in its primitivity.

Wisdom, serenity, forgiveness I seek,

Of this darkness, I no longer want to reek

Change this course I must because its future is bleak,

For I cannot ask again for the other cheek.

For deep down, I know I am meek,

Discovering what I did makes me weak,

Addressing my ignorance I must before next I speak.
