Sinking

I thought I was wise.
til I unshielded my eyes
To the
Sun ablaze:
Halo to the silhouette 
of my conscience,
intimidating me
Into
sinking behind
a sorry disguise.
 
Each new day
Into the ocean
Deep enough
To keep the light at bay
————
Liberate!
But in the moment
Of importance,
I hesitate.
 
Sinking behind
This sorry disguise
 
What’s my fate?!
A broken 
existence
As I sink away
—————
I
will Create!
from below, within
when I rest in
the holy place
 
where my heart use to beat
So peacefully
