Teach me Unveil the beast Beyond these sheets That witnessed every euphoric succumb Insatiably powerful Roaring desires running wild To a peaceful embark Teach me How the tides are pulled back Just so the moon Can get a bit closer to earth As it continues a cycle Either bound to ravage Or offer an appeasement Teach me How a mother hears The silent weeps of her children Amongst a thousand voices All screaming to be heard Teach me About the grey areas The energies in between forces How do you grasp What has never been defined Only the absolute ends of the pole When you are Right there in the middle Observing how The opposites come into terms Teach me What it's like Being on a heroic verge of a hanger cliff Climaxing each moment towards perfection Unravel my greatest yearnings Rupture the last strands Explosions way beyond The contours of this timid mind Rattle my sense of being Let the heat burn down Walls of ice In this tug of war I can only see Shattered innocence Coz the ground is No longer safe Earthquakes ruled the nights And there was nothing But unrelenting waves of the ocean by day Teach me How to let go Of these ideas misconstrue d Structured to build Theoretical labels of who i am When potential had been Dictated by self imposed great men Allowing the self to be trapped In their idea of what you are But you insist on erasing their words Which is the greatest soar of the fallen How failure crashed your ego But never your spirit Teach me To confiscate all earthly ideologies Coz by then, I am blinded and lost Touching the unknown At such point Will i ever know A deeper meaning to this Sense of self Teach me To dance with the footsteps of the rain Go with the flow With every damaging downfall Guide me To a beautiful ascend To the secrets hiding behind The deepest intent for love and survival Rudimentary necessities In the end Love shall thrive The pertinent lesson In each and every lifetime..

Audrine, I have never read such a poem like this, " Teach Me, " has all the pertinent questions we should all be asking. This is your best!

Always,
Deborah

Your poem is close to epic its depth, breadth and proportion. Nothing short of a god could teach you all that you asked for. On the other hand, you could teach yourself and you brought a long way toward that by asking.

A most intriguing and enjoyable review of searching for a higher existence. in the end, love conquers all.

Love shall thrive
The pertinent lesson
In each and every lifetime..

Your poem, which is deserving of much more that a single reading, expresses so much that the reader needs to ponder upon. I love the ending in particular. Well done, Audrine and thank you for sharing. Love and best wishes to you,
