I made the grade once
I was considered a peer

I found the lost answer
I turned away from fear

I made the most of time
I trained my mind to thrive

I met the thrust of hardship
I was empowered and alive

I have faltered since
I have become an afterthought

I have tried to fill the holes
I have forgotten what I sought

I look to the sky for nothing
I find disregard in every face

I clench my fist in anger
I slowly fall from grace

I make my mind and shatter course
with less dignity than before
I break my heart on evasive truth
and fear that which is in store

Reads like an intense evaluation of a consciousness in flux between contractions and expansions. The bared-soul raw honesty shines much beauty beyond the syllables of pain.

Always provocative thoughts in your fine poetry Brian!

you finally make your quest
towards what you know is best
leaving fear and negativity
having discovered opportunity

From me to you;-)
