Iambic Pentameter

[sameasy0urs]

Here's my experiment with iambic pentameter. I call it Flashback.

Is that the best thing about the light at the end?
I just got the chance to see myself clear
Who was the person who now brought you here?
And does he want to take away the tears?

Perhaps seeing what you believe is always truth
Perhaps belief is not what keeps you sane
Perhaps coasting along won’t shield the pain
Perhaps losing it is what keeps you vein

I always put much faith in the happy endings
And maybe they’re never that far away
Chasing them is the only game we play
I’m getting mine and I’m finding the way

I was never hopeless
I was never lost

I’ve found my way and I do not care to go back
At this point, even the darkness seems bright
The darkness made me welcome in the light
The darkness gave me the courage to write

The silver lining to anything bad that comes
Is that at the very least, we will learn
What will happen if we begin to turn?
The lesson here is avoiding the burn

I now have gained my hope
I now have my path

Look out world because I’m coming by leaps and bounds
I’m filled with the strength to keep me going
I may have demons to keep on towing
But my greatest strength is at least knowing
