Why am i constantly reminded of you?
Why am i assiduously seeking your influence?
Why do i feel like a leech?
Sucking up every last drop of what you willingly "pour out"
your heart wine
Your thoughts bread
Your words bitter-sweet
Vital ingredients of a recipe which, when eaten, lingers a perpetual taste of truth and introspection
None of which i can live without
Forgive me for my idiosyncrasies
like you, i too, need to shatter the walls built to shield crucial criticism
like you, i too, need to hold my own banner boldly defining my purpose and my place
like you, i too, need to 'dig' within and dust the dirt off the treasure, i know exists
like you, i too, need to claim what's mine with clenched fists
like you, i too, need to re route from the road of pessimism
like you, i too, need to avoid doubt's sinking sand
I beg of you to hold your faith
You'll always have my loyalty
I just need your hand
