but sometimes it would be nice
to hear you talk about yourself
and have a peek inside the void
that nurtures the potential of an open heart
but no so fun to lose your head
to lie in bed till the lights fade
and forget the gifts of every step
it swirls in shapes in colors
and hints in math the clues to the existence
and place our toes in the water
would you still be worried?
would you still be sorry?
it swells your head like a balloon
and you run around trying not to pop
blowing up loudly in the end
only to be heard by a true friend
join us in this fire
let the liars blame the liars
they're not evil, they're just tired
we will look into the pond
the stars are here, search no more
might be buried a key for love
don't be hurried and don't be slow
tender steps, forget the show
After a long day of tweeting and paying much attention to the political scenario of Steem, I really needed to write something different to change gears. I won't lie, this has been great entertainment, as well as a really interesting social experience where the coordination and cooperation of a community has shined brilliantly over the greed of totalitarianism.
Steem has made me very joyful today, it's not every day we get to see the triumph of the many and we have witnessed it second to second. Let's stick together and see this come through, thanks for this glimmering hope in society, perhaps we are not so doomed after all.

This is me on Friday night while out with a buddy. Me filled with lots of new info, spilling it to him, but my head bursts and he hears it.. but still doesn't care.. haha.
Awesome poem! I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. Also, the photo.. did you take that or manipulate something? very neat!
I feel you hahaha, to the rest of the world the blockchain is just alien.

Aww, thank you very much!
I love what you said. 😍 It made me realize that if we take time to find ourselves, relax and meditate, then it would sure lessen our worries!!!
Your poem is very vivid. I can feel that my toes are in the waters! Hahaha! 😂
Thank you for sharing this. ❤
Thank you for the appreciation and nice thoughts on the poem :) Much love!
Welcome! Keep on steeming! 😊
It's like this line is actually referring to me. Sometimes I feel like following the trend/crowd but along the line, I had rethought to follow my own lane.
Great piece from you.

Thanks for stopping by!
To each their own mate and a great scribe here. We are all eternal wanderers having to fight against the odds, normally each in their own way.
It is great however to see a common enemy combining all in a fight for survival and the unity shows the result.
I have also done a Hakuna Matata post in an effort to relieve the stresses.
Blessings and well done!
That's great I'll go check your post!
Thank you for coming around and leaving a thoughtful comment!
My pleasure to pop in my friend!
Blessings!
There is much reason in the image of putting our feet in the water and forget of everything, nothing else matters than to be alive and enjoying and ready to be surprised. We need calm and walk the journey with ease!
Great work, @Fenngen, glad to find it through the PHC.
I send the best vibes for every project!!
Thanks a lot for the great vibes! Sending them right back at you!
Maybe today I switch gears too, but I haven't checked on the current position we're in yet this morning. That @jaynie has restarted the community post today is a good sign. :)
Your shift produced a very nice poem and I'm sure it helped lift your spirit as it has mine!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

That's right, nothing more relaxing than a nice poem after all that fuss. Nice to read you.
Thanks, glad you liked it :)
Nice thoughts expressed here @fenngen. It is a great place to reach in our spirits when we know what is truly important and what is not. What we have any influence over / responsibility for and what we do not ...
Then we can more freely "place our toes in the water" and be at peace ...
Right there with you on this ...
... I need to get away from all the drama "high over our heads" and just focus on what is right in front of me.
Have a great day!
Thank you, loved the comment. Let's all try to focus on what we have truly at hand, despite the constant amnesia we tend to suffer hehehe.
You too have a great day!
Lovely thoughts in your poem.
We are a great community and pull together always.
That's the beauty of it!
Hello @fenngen,
I enjoyed reading this existentialist prose, in which I believe, that many will find a reflection of themselves.
I share in part your final appreciation of what happened in the community in these last days. Yes, life is society seems an eternal struggle between oppressors and oppressed, where the small and momentary victories of side and side, rejoice or sadden us. The truth of all, our lives continue to adapt to new situations.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and poem.
Deep truth there man! Thanks for the thoughtful comment.
You're welcome my friend.
Have a great day.
Hi, honey. You're so right, worries are tiring and the relief is in the simple things in life.
So accurate and so easy to forget! Thanks for stopping by!
Beautiful loving poetry, definitely something we all needed this week. Thank you for sharing it with us. :)
Thank you very much for your kind comment :)
You have the right idea to just chill out @fenngen nice poem.

Great poem and welcome distraction from the recent blockchain drama.
Hehehe, glad you liked it :) Thanks!
Most definitely need to put our toes in the water and swirl them around, stir up some different emotions.
Roller coaster ride over past couple of weeks, agree a good time out is needed.

Very grateful for the support!
This sure makes me want to put down my weapons and be happy with what I've got. Maybe dip my toes in some water at the edge of a lake somewhere and celebrate instead of worrying. Very nice poem
Thanks, hope you get the chance to do that!
Sometimes it is good to take some time, relax and clear your mind from the stress of everyday life. I love it in the evenings, going to a nearby beach in my town, and walking barefoot in the sand feeling the water rubbing against my bare feet, is a fabulous feeling. Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem, I give you a sunset from my land, Venezuela. A hug and my support! @fenngen
PD: I loved your final message and I identify to the maximum with what you express there, you are sweet, another hug for you!
Thank you very much for your warm comment, it was very sweet as well :) I would love to visit Venezuela one day, is it too hard for a tourist to move around with little money there?

In the midst of the storm we must remain calm...even if it's not easy to do.
Desperation only makes it worse! Thanks for stopping by :)
Interesting poem. Made me feel... like my surroundings and possibilities are infinite!
And they are! Glad you felt this way, thank you for the kind comment :D
Lovely poem, @fenngen. I’m glad you found the Steemit-TRON drama entertaining! And also that you found a creative diversion from it. 😁
Thanks! Steem is like the best thing ever, you have all the kind of situations you can imagine, lol! Glad you enjoyed, grateful for your comment :)
Hi @fenngen. Nice poem in reference to slowing down to essentially deflate from all the information overload we get daily. Can't hardly process when the next day roll around, and we're bombarded with even more.
How do you turn it off and still stay in tuned? Answer: just do it. because it will be there the next day and the next. often repeating, so you won't miss much.
I love the quiet. It calms me so. I have HBP, so I can't let anyone or anything stress me out. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.
Exactly! That's the trick, you have to know it's there whether you look at it or not...
