Things Sometimes Do Not Work Out The Way You Expect Them To Be Poem by RIC BASTASA

familiarity
to failure is not a easy
task, you get entangled
to a confusion
and you lose reason
sometimes

emotions pour
like lava
you have become this
erupting volcano
and time
solidifies hot magma
solid mountains
of rock
on beautiful formations
from a recent fury

like you
like what you feel
in the middle of anger
let all these make
a free flow
and simply wait and
watch

patience brings
the most beautiful
shape in you

sculpture of angry
thoughts settling
in the contours
of your peace and
quiet

then solidified
understanding
rocks and boulders
strengths and
principles and

a self newly forged
strong and bold
an edifice of
yourself now
like this new mountain
silent and daring
to nature imposing
