The Illusion of Potential
for JMH
carol voccia © 2011
It took one and a half circles of the sun with you
To see friendship reduced to tough text
And insincerity scratched in political correctness
Now when the sun shines on potential
I will quickly
Anchor myself in reality
You see
Potential is only a word
Reality is your face in the mirror
Potential is illusive
Reality burns any clouds of doubt away
If looked squarely in the eye
You will know truth
And it will sting with harshness
Or sing with sweet
It depends on your hearts loyal compass
And your willingness to actually know
Its message in your reflection
