A Walking Waterfall Poem by michael scott

A Walking Waterfall


You stand in the lights bearing a smile for the world to see. Pretending to be the person they want you to be in there mind. Living the life they want to see you live. While secretly you’re a walking waterfall.

Bearing the truth you hide behind a fake smile. At knowledge of the truth you go in denial. Hiding from the person you really is, only to be like others in life. Instead you play the role of a walking waterfall.

The dreams, hope, life, and goals you ones had have now vanished. Living with the way of other you hate yourself. Feeling as you don’t fit in with the dreams and goals you, shut down. Like a fool you’re managed by others.

You will never come from behind that faded smile. Into you one day take the ranges of the life you’ll been blested with. Then you’ll be the rock that makes the mountain.
