My Shew Collection

If you were in my shoes
I’d say, Hey, Those are mine!
Get a pair of your own
I need to do a lot more walking!

Who am I?
Perhaps not who you think
Ask me the questions
The life interview questions
And find out
These answers are not of
What many would consider “ordinary”
So asker beware

Does that scare you?
Well perhaps that is where you fail
And here you though that
I was the only one being tested
Never was good at driving on
One way streets
Mainly those that say wrong way

Then again….
Never cared for driving anyhow
Highways, just too crowded
Byways are what keeps my dreams complete

Confused? Welcome to the club
Though my club is a metaphor
That smacks out reality
As your club is the kind
Where people try fitting in
Being facades even in their own minds

Was never good with crowds
Anti social, Mind was always full of thoughts
That either nailed me to my own cross of personal torture
Or set me free to travel anywhere I please
Oh, the power of mentality

But I do admit
I have a vivid imagination
Have done so much
When doing nothing at all

But I try
As I walk the many miles in these shoes
Finding the right path for enlightenment
Towards a life anew

Do I have a redundant style?
Sure hope not
What is the fun in that?
My shoes are not the fancy kind
Just ones that keep me on the move

Still confused?
Ponder on, Ponder on
These words were not meant to be technical
I consider them to be freed
But that is just me

Be yourself
That is who you should thrive to be
Walk far on your very own shoes
Thriving to walk beyond even your own limited feat
