...self-redemption... (free verse)
“…and understandably so”

come on son look at what you have got.
you have got so much to lose...
but then again, you will have the whole world in your palm.

all it takes is just some ridelyn,
mixed with cultured self-discipline.
you will have the whole world in your hand.

but i will take my time...
in light of these harsh consequences
of following aspirations.

with my conscience fast asleep,
i am sinking slower. yet…
i am desperately seeking...
to re-gain self respect.

i miss the smell of solitude,
a place to empty out the mind.
i have reached new lows for the last time.

with my conscience setting in,
it is time to separate.
what i wish is to do good...
but what i do is what i hate.
