Chase



I won’t chase after…. 
Something elusive
Something dismissive
Something invasive
That borders on the repulsive

I won’t chase after toys
Something coy
A ploy
That will make me burn like troy

I won’t chase after…
Something wickedly seductive
That makes my emotions captive
Derives pleasure in my pain

I can’t chase fakes that break down
Costly mistakes that bring a man down
The stakes are high
And down the stake you go

All the pieces may never seem to fit but when you reach the twilight, that’s when it starts to make sense. And through a pair of brand new eyes illuminated by God, you look at things differently. For the next posts will be theme free; unless there is one…anyone. T h ank you again for your reading...
