Awakening
The very essence of adolescence is efflorescence
Passion's embrace is quite effervescent
Was driven to insatiable impress simply by his presence.
An answer to a prayer thought he was heaven sent
I would have walked one million miles for just one of his dimple- filled smiles
Liked his style plus his touch drove me wild
Was in denial and it took me a while to see he was foul and incomplete
Yet, women lie at his feet
Still this man made me weak
Forsaked all others, lying in wait
Trapped in a dream was my mental state
Low on the totem pole, drown by tears
Drained by the fact that I wasted too many years
Tired of debating, sick of hesitating
Dizzy by the never-ending yo-yo ride of him trying to decide Feel like I tried, but for too long I cried and inside I died
But I have too much pride to meet my demise here
Can you see me shaking off fear and realizing my dreams Coming into the blossoming I felt in my teens
Cause the very essence of adolescence is efflorescence Catching blessings from God's presence life is effervescent
