Conform.
A big stride and I find myself in the daydream
Whispering to higher and strange gods
And singing, being heard for the first time
No reaching for the shame, no trace of loathing.
Regret doesn't exist, as we cannot turn back
When a step is given, that door is closed
Come on forward, and put up your iron shoes
Maybe they'll be so heavy to keep you grounded, I tell myself in the light of day.
Beauty, green, flesh, water, evaporates
Perhaps is a key, or padlock
How will I know?
Like the fox, I might as well rely on cunning.
New awakenings represent possible beacons,
And the slowest of progress, always paddling against the tide, salmons going up the waterfall
Eluding bears, the fear, the nothingness.
While I bathe myself with unfounded optimism
I wonder if fantasies will ever be tangible,
For the seed to sprout
For the spring to come.
Greetings! Nice poets of Hive. I hope everybody is doing superb. On this occasion I share with you all a recent text written by me the last couple of days. As usual, I find myself in a thoughtful state, mostly in the mornings, when I am traveling to my job, and I get inspired by everything, from my dreams, to the colors that I see, the people and of course the moments in my life, remembering the past, present and future.
I hope that you find it interesting at least, and if you got to read all of this I thank you greatly for taking the time to do so.
Until next time! Best regards.
Cesar.
Just as above, regret doesn't exist because it causes more regrets, but I'd hope the iron shoes won't hold us back because it purpose is to make up stronger.
Nice poem 👍
Hi @martinlazizi! The thought behind the iron shoes goes way back in time. My grandpa used to say to me that I always have to “give iron steps' ', by this he meant that I should stick to my opinions and decisions, and keep going forward without second-guessing, overthinking much, or even less stopping to be regretful.
I think that It is a challenge to live under that philosophy without crossing the line of being impulsive, but rather confident, strong-minded, and determined.
I very much appreciate your kind words and Input. I wish you the best.
That's a great philosophy.
Regrets doesn't exist as we cannot turn back....
That line is gold. So a nice poem.
As golden is your comment to me @tedcipher, so thank you very much, I am glad that you could resonate with those words. Kind regards to you!
I like this verses
So far, it has been the line that has gotten more attention. Sometimes I dream about my words touching minds, so if you liked it, that dream starts to get colorful and bigger.
Thank you @penyaircyber for your comment, and for taking the time to read. I like the fact that you liked something about it.
Gran poema amigo como siempre me llamo mucho la atención este párrafo:
Siempre buscamos inspiración en cualquier cosa, hasta en lo más mínimo para poder sacar escritos geniales como este, un abrazo y muchas bendiciones ☺
Muchas gracias por tu comentario José! siempre tan amable y positivo.
Love, love, love it!
Ah, it's hard when we are always in our thoughts and feeling airy - iron shoes might be a good idea!!!
Dreams are everything! And the more we set goals and think about what we want, the more we make tiny steps to make them come true.
Beautiful poem, dear @cesarj21 21
Thank you so much! It made me smile to think that you liked these writings, and yes, they came from dreams, goals, and airiness. Lots of hugs to you.
