Rattles Of The Shadows And Echoes Poem by Demetrius JonesDixon

Just like winners have to accept losing
Losers have to accept winning

It's a hard concept to shallow
It's forcing yourself puts that shell

You know, that one you sit in and wallow
And dwell on losts' pasts

It's time to learn how to have your cake and eat it too
And not just awkwardly holding it, letting it liquid, and melt through

I was hold that the only difference between winning and losing is your attitude
This matter can be confusing

The patience and hard work I'[m putting in loves being delayed
My motivation becomes faded

My opinions, thoughts & feelings continuously wax like the light reflecting off the moon
Some days full and vibrant, others faded

I'm experiencing 2012's year of stagnation again in my year of art
The old feelings copied and pasted from tarnished memories

I wake tired
Can't even remember a solid dream

Trying to strong arm the rope and not let my mental fall back into the chasm
Trying to regulate the staggering emotions

Can't even focus on my own hobbies

The funny thing is, my energy calms back down when I'm near the double X's
And I told her how I felt, before that I told myself "after this, life goes on"

But the powerfully, calming, & soothing energy is what attracts me
The one that uplifts the low energy transmitting from the Green charkas

Gives me enough energy to wake up and fill up the moon
