\r\nYou're in deep right now\r\nAnd were bound to fall in and get stuck anyway.\r\nYou've seen it coming all along.\r\n\r\nIt seemed inevitable - that's why you kept denying\r\nWho you are for so long;\r\nAdmitting causes you to fall in.\r\n\r\nPerhaps you've been Down all along.\r\nAnd this explains why you've never\r\nReally gone home.\r\n\r\nThe point is you're there,\r\nAnd you're alone, \r\nAnd the people who matter are in holes themselves\r\nLooking up;\r\nSearching for hands to grab onto,\r\nThe way you search for hands right now.\r\n\r\nSo you blindly crawl, searching,\r\nConstantly searching;\r\nGroping, \r\nConstantly groping - \r\nNot necessarily for hands\r\nSince you've convinced yourself\r\nThat Down isn't such a bad place to be.\r\n\r\nBefore, you were looking for importance,\r\nSomething to immerse yourself in.\r\nPassion is your motto,\r\nAnd Down is devoid of passion.\r\nBut something went wrong along the way;\r\nYou see,\r\nYou're not supposed to know you've fallen in.\r\n\r\nBut you admitted\r\nAnd you faced your demons\r\nAnd you were enlightened\r\nAnd now you're restless\r\nAnd you can't do anything about it.\r\nAll that's left is searching for hands,\r\nBecause they're the easiest thing to focus on.\r\n\r\nYou've yearned for hands for so long,\r\nAnd hands you still have not grasped.\r\nYou're far too young to be Down,\r\nBut don't despair.\r\nJust remember,\r\nThat you can only be Down for so long.\r\nOne day the passion you are full of will have an outlet.\r\n\r\nOne day, hands will bring you Up,\r\nAnd Up you'll stay.\r\nThose hands won't let go.\r\n\r\nYour knowledge doesn't have to be a curse.\r\nRemember that all around you are cracks,\r\nAnd people fall Down all the time.\r\n\r\nBut they all get Up,\r\nAnd they all get Up smiling.\r\nRealize this and you will be galvanized the next time you are Down.\r\n\r\nAnd next time, you won't have to be Up to smile. <\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Poem: Hands<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-152","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-art-stuffs","category-poetry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=152"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=152"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
