all over again

the other day
when you were two steps
away from
my heart

i tried to ask you
about the future

and even though
we hadn't parted
and even though
my heart was stronger
than it ever was

you trampled through me
just the same

now i stand
in my stead
ever ready to help

and i empower
my spirit
in the good deeds
of my world

bolstering myself up
for the next wave
of indecision

strengthening my soul
to become what
i'm not

for awhile

dimming and brightening
as the experience
requires

acting all over again
