Attached to the Cure
In modest ways we change
as the water forms puddles
as the wind form pictures
as the fire burns through
In modest ways we release
to react on canvas with choice
to react beyond our emotions
to react against the piercings
In modest ways we change
Young hearts feel devoted
stumble upon mediocre phrases
stumble upon lost visions
stumble upon lust and gimmicks
Young hearts feel remote
to close to understand
to close to protect emotions
to close to look down
Young hearts feel devoted
Am I the cure
adjacent to people's wants
adjacent to the edge
adjacent to an angled world
Am I the face of choice
to open the flow
to open up the trust
to open the womb
Am I the cure

hello
hello poetry dude! Welcome to Neopoet!
I like your poem. Your title was very captivating. It drew me in. I love your poem, you can interpret it in many ways. It could be referencing the pandemic. Or the cure (In the way I read it) represents the cure for humanity. The cure for the constant hate and evil in this world. Seems like a nicer version of a poem I wrote called the world we live in. It's on my works page at the very bottom. Keep writing and be sure to enter in the the Enter and exit contest.
Kisses,
Vivi
