Nothing Comes Without Awkward Footsteps Poem by Sean Buchsbaum

feeling like i have no
control of who i am
im so happy
i let everything
go
i took my next step
in life
i am who i am
the many of the same
sighing out
what ive kept in so
long
realizing
that i found the
life that took me so long
in the nights that are more
than hours but time
that passes me by
like the ticking numbers
on a clock
watching the aging
by the second
feeling so contempt
with what ive found
the thing that
is so hard to
explain
because its so hard
to find the answer
to your question of
life
that never can be
answered
for the reason
of surprises
in everything
seeing that life
is everywhere
but nowhere
checking up on you
making sure
that life is ok
keeping you on
your feet
helping you with that seat
showing what life could
be like
with the happiness there
showing who
you really are
giving up your tactics
at popularity
pushing it all aside
keeping life
on track
looking back
seeing
all the
time that ticked
away before you
all from a chat
over
life when your living
it now
and it never stops
showing you
that there
is always
another
path
through
it
all
