Kitten/Deny

My nature is not appeased

Pleasingly.

I cannot be subdued

and will not allow you to forget me,

while you can deny your eyes

and close yourself from the world.

 

Your Will may be indomitable,

Even though the greatest mountains crumble.

The rains may be always storming,

I will not let that blank out the sun.

The jungles may be ferocious,

Even though the lion is still just a…

 

…kitten,

after all.

 

Those who fear their dreams in the dead of night,

know they are much more alive than a dream of the day.

 

Our vision in sight is only

that which passes through the pupil.

I will trade you my sight,

for a thimble of truth.
