Hold And Escalate It Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The flame I see within you brightens.
Something has dawned,
To ignite a dimming need.
Something has connected,
To spark an increase...
Of a desired feeding pleased.

You have attached to happiness.
An entrapment has been detached.
You have come to decide,
Whatever you carried...
To lift it off your back!

I hope you allow this to magnify.
Hold and escalate it.
Embrace and motivate it,
To keep you satisfied!

Whatever it is,
It has come to you as a gift!
To identify any remnants of darkness.
I can tell by your smile...
And the ease of it.
You once tried to hide from escaping,
To show on your face.
And tightly shut lips!
