Paralax Podium

Standing on a podium
A lonely platform to excel
Piano keys unlock a melody
A yesterday recollection

Didn't find an answer
Smothered myself out
A hero lost cause in action
Still not quite enough
To force a destiny
Of equality

Standing on a lonely podium
A platform of discipline to excel
Piano keys unlock a beautiful melody
A bitter sweet recollection of memories
No one stands beside or behind
Only my shifting shadow

No answer for me
Only a simple request
Smother yourself out
Awareness incarceration
Get lost inside your own mind
Don’t come back from action
Words disappear daily
Not quite enough
To force a destiny
Of equality
