A Change Of Heart Poem by Christopher Soto

A Change Of Heart



At the dock, lost plot, ship has sailed.
Why wait? Time ticks, tocks, ticks, stops!
Effortlessly conjoining conclusions that
circumnavigate thy cranium night and day!
But alas! The answer is clear! Flee! FLEE!
The contrasting answer flows the other way
exciting solutions and convolutions entrapping
incantations by moonlight sonatas oblivious to fate.
Must I follow a path once thought the yellow brick road?
The wizard has spoken and mysterious smoke has blown from afar..
I've seen future, past and now, envisioned possibilities once thought extinct.
I'm convinced, I'm convinced... Fork in the road option of two, which way will I choose, have I chosen? False impression? Misconception? Hallucination of misapprehension?

Confused, but not lost.
What I lost, I have lost.
Once in a lifetime,
dream come true,
disconsolate ending,
that's fairytales for you.

Intricate complication arisen from ashes like a phoenix, the truth like fire shines in darkness. Unraveled mystery that steered that train of thought, the points have
switched... Swiftly changed the destined finale, to a completely new end.
Incomprehensible transformation, boggling minds, sane minds.
Why, oh why, such the sporadic change? Many are puzzled...
But when consciousness is acquired, revealing my loss...
You'll comprehend the change occurring within heart,
and know that I'm truly not delirious or insane.
For when the one chance is gone and missed,
your life changes and truth is revealed.
You know what to do...
You know where to go...
Life is endless...
